RE: Virus incident



Well I can take responsibility for the messages from
'antigen@page1book.com', however if the Debian User mailing list didn't send
out viruses in the first place, there wouldn't be the automated reply.

The same goes for the YODA messages.

In all honesty I've merely kept up with my software and virus updates and
don't actually know why my software automatically responded.

However, if there were no response, it wouldn't be nearly as obvious that
the email from m.dobsicek@sh.cvut.cz was viral.

So, if there's any way the mailing list can filter out the viruses in the
first place, you won't see the automated messages. At any rate I hope people
go after the real culprit(the sender of the virus) and don't take it out on
us.
