Fwd: Re: VIRUS IN A MAIL FOR YOU FROM address@hidden

[John Day]

Hi,

I've been receiving virus-laden emails from this mailing list over the past 
few days. Our site filters all email and has detected the "Badland" virus, 
which is apparently very new. You should contact your email administrators 
and have them take the necessary actions to eliminate this problem. So far, 
no harm has been done.
Thanks,
