God I'm sick of this virus already.
Anyone else on bugtraq will have seen the 15 mails about it.
The sendmail patch is to reject any mail with Important Message From in
the subject... not majorly thrilled about that, but there's not much else
that can be done, apart from educating the blight. This virus is probably
going to be a serious problem, as the source code is easily accessible, and
someone just has to change Important Message From to something else
and all the filters will die a death.
Oh well.. and the day started well... with sun and stuff
Regards
L.
