I just received a notice from a mailing list that they're unsubscribing
me because I refused a message.
They sent me back this, which allegedly comes from my mailserver:
<snip>
xxx@???
This message has been rejected because it has
a potentially executable attachment
your_picture.pif
This form of attachment has been used by
recent viruses or other malware.
If you meant to send this file then please
package it up as a zip file and resend it.
</snip>
I don't have any AV system on this mailserver (yet). Could I have
somehow configured exim to send back this message? If so, I don't
remember doing so (though it sounds like a good idea <smile>).
I just sent myself an email from another account, with a .exe
attachment, and it got delivered without any such message.
So is this likely a virus itself?
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Jeff
