*Ø* Blogmanac | A message to server admins
"Email server administrators, please read this message.
"If your mail server is set up to bounce emails with viruses attached, along with a message to the sender, please turn that feature off. Unless you've been in a cave for the past three days, you know that tens of millions -possibly hundreds of millions- of emails carrying the sobig.f virus have been hammering email servers worldwide. Not a single one of these emails has the sender in the FROM: field. Not one of them.
"The person listed in the FROM: field is not infected with a virus. Someone with that person in their address book is infected. Your bounce message serves no useful purpose and is contributing actively to this problem. For Christ's sake, stop bouncing the virus emails. Route them to /dev/null/ and be done with it."
