G'day guys,
I'm not sure what's a foot but I've got my suspicions the mailer has been
targeted by a virus. A number of gzg-l posts this morning have come
through with empty bodies but with a size of exactly 322k regardless of topic,
author etc. I've done all the checks possible at my end and have come up
blank, my best guess is its a virus being stripped by either my server or the
list server. If anyone else is also having this problem please let me
Chris might know for sure, but from the lack of nasties in my mailbox I'll
venture a guess that someone you know got the Klez virus. That one sends
itself to people in your address book, and forges its ID as being one of
them...
I'm using Mozilla for email, so far all of the virii have gone after Outlook
and its family. For the time being I'm safe. I see the occasional virus, but
it just sits there. I am *not* safe from accidentally opening a dangerous
attachment, but I keep NortonAV around for that.

Basically someone somewhere got a virus (or multiple people did) which
overloaded a mail server in Australia as a result it only sent headers and no
body. Said server is now being upgraded so it can cope with such events.
Thanks
