I sent a question about glib earlier, and opened up my mail some time later
and got this:
From: mailmarshal@standardbank.co.za To: yonaton@tds.net Date: 17 June 2005 15:06
Standard Bank's Mail Gateway has quarantined an e-mail message sent by you for the following reason:
This e-mail is encrypted and could be infected with a virus. As Anti-virus software does not have the capability to effectively scan encrypted mail, the message has been automatically quarantined.
The recipient has been notified of this and can request the message to be released from quarantine if it is safe to do so.
The details of the message are as follows:
Message: B42b32d270000.000000000001.0001.mml From: yonaton@tds.net To: gerard.ceruti@standardbank.co.za Subject: [SLE] How do I set glib in PREFIX?
Anyone know what the heck this is? I sent it only to the list. I've checked for rootkits and found nothing. I've only got dialup. Something's fishy in Denmark methinks.
Maybe mailmarshal@standardbank.co.za is used by SuSE to scan incoming mail. Sounds like it's saying that it will give SuSE the opportunity to decide whether to accept your encrypted message, even though it can't scan it. Did you just (maybe inadvertently) start encrypting your email messages, either for the first time or via some different encrypting method?

Or maybe there was something unusual in the content of that message. Greg W
