It seems that the ietf-types list is not only a favourite target of
spammers, it is also a favourite target for virii :-(
After the recent slew of virii that were successfully faking the sender
address and getting through to the list, I have finally knuckled under and
installed a virus scanner on the host that is hosting the mailing list.
So all recognized virii will now be sent to /dev/null - and anyone who
attaches an .exe file to the list will receive a nastygram from the
virusscanner, and NOT get their mail sent to the list.
Hope this makes your lives a little easier..... take care!
Harald
