Subject: Poorly configured AV scanners

We apparently have some folks on this list who still think it makes sense 
to send virus warnings to the sender, even though the sender is forged.

Here's the ones that I've gotten so far, for a "text.pif" file that I 
supposedly sent to the list (which is impossible for me to do, BTW.)

Domain                        AV Gateway Software

icentrum.co.uk                Symantec Mail Security
bell24.co.jp                  McAfee Gateway Scanner

Please ask your mail admins to turn off notifications.  They are worthless.
