[ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ]
The Virus W32/Magistr.a@MM slipped through the filter yesterday.

I did receive the postmaster warning, but the user also received the message.

Does this have to do with the virus modifying the return address making it
fail in the director or transport so that the whole thing never go flushed
from the queue?

I notice that the delivery to the user happened on the queue run 5 minutes
after the initial delivery.

Names of innocents below have been changed, guilty names remain the same.

I believe that this virus has been detected before by this filter.

I did notice an e-mail to Nigel about this on 10 July 2001, but no post of
the public resolution.

By the way - Nigel - many thanks for posting the filter, I have modified
and re-modified it many times for specific blocking and SPAM stopping, but
I would have been much further behind without the kick-start from the
initial filter.

Thanks in advance,

Jeff Sloan
