I don't think that removing now and any future joining from that person would mean that we'll not get more viruses, I think that the best idea is to have a virus scanner on the server which processes mail.
Sorry, but I don't agree. Virus scanners open mail servers to some very stupid denial of service attacks (e.g., What happens if someone sends an attachment containing 2GBs of compressed zeros?) and, since most are binary-only software, reliance on the vendors word that the software is secure. Why should we compromise the security of our mail servers because some people run insecure clients? The viruses don't affect us. In any case, I've enabled the the mime and html filtering I normally do for our other lists so it shouldn't be an issue anymore. Thanks, P.S. Please send responses, if any, to m17n-owner@suse.com and not through the list. -- -ckm
