RE: Email account utilization warning.
Hi, It is a little strange that noone from the apache team has stepped forward to clarify that these are fake... since they are being sent to an apache mailing list after all. That depends on how you define stepped forward. We've identified these as fake/virus emails early on. There was never a news item posted on www.apache.org or anything like that. By and large, we rely on the subscribers to these mailing lists (who are, given the context, assumed to be individuals of relatively high computer literacy) to know how to treat email worms. Yoav Shapira The clues I had that it was a fake: 1) Sent to an apache/jakarta mailing list... by apache.org. 2) Really poor grammar in the message. (Ok, who am I kidding? ;) 3) I started getting similar e-mails from my own domain. ;) But it's probably given more than a few people pause. -Paul Mark Roth wrote: Hi Michael, I think the message itself is from a clever virus that is trying to get you to open the attachment.

Re: Email account utilization warning.
Lily, The message that you received seems to be a new virus or trojan circulating around, or else someone pumping the list for personal information. I would suggest that you _not_ open the attachment from that message, and delete any messages purporting to come from [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED]. --gary Hi, I got this email and I really do not know anything about the spam.
