Any warning that says 'Mail to everyone in your mail list' just has to
be a hoax. Just doing that is what a lot of viruss do (What is the

I do like the virus that presents itself as a 'Do It Yourself'
Something like:
Please delete a few random files on your hard disk, and forward this
message to everyone in your address book.
