Re: [Samba] virus mailing

[Jim Morris]

I agree with blocking attachments.

The sad fact is that if you just ban a user email address that sent a virus to the mailing list, you may be banning an innocent person!

I have been seeing a LOT of 'virus removal' messages directed towards my email address, saying that I sent an infected email to a person I never even heard of. The sad fact is, many of these Outlook based viruses forge the sender address using other addresses on the infected computer. I have never used Outlook - all my email is read on either Linux or Mac OS X. I don't even use Windows based email clients - maybe Mozilla once in a blue moon.... those infected emails came from someone who may have once received mail from me, who DOES run a virus engine such as Outlook.....
