Another tiny suggestion. Till this wave of mydoom mails are over, you
can also configure your virus checker not to notify the sender and the
recipient that a virus has been caught. I know that many management
people have this problem about "what if an important mail is dropped
silently?". But the chances of that happening have come down a lot
nowadays. So if you can bite the bullet and disable notifications, you
can save yourself a LOT of mails.
