my two cents on why i was posting:

i was posting about the M$ virus, becase i assumed that there we others on
the list that were in a similar situation as I find myself... Linux admin,
who has a exchange server on their network, was trying to help thoes
people, as it seemed to be spredding quickly and i want able to find much
of anything about it on the net yet.

i hope to not have troubled anyone with the messages that i have
contributed re: virus.

ps, sounds like a great procmail recipie to me!
