Is this that email virus what everyone is talking about?
« on: August 25, 2003, 03:00:17 PM »
I opened my inbox today, and found over 30 emails with the following subject...

"Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender", and "Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender"

Is this the virus, and if so, is it safe to delete them?

I used to get a lot of these e-mails a long time ago without any apparent reason.Better delete them.

Sounds like you do have one that is sending mail constantly - and apparently to a now defunct e-mail address.. What e-mail is it tryin\' to send it to? Check and see if it\'s one that you have in your address book.. Most these viruses get e-mail addresses from your address book and then send themselves out.

When\'s the last time you ran a virus scan?

But that would mean opening the email wouldn\'t it? I\'m a bit wary of opening emails like this
 
I last ran a virus scan a few days ago, it picked up  trojan, which I got rid of, I ran the virus scan again nd got an all clear.

Just delete them... If it happens again - I\'d update my anti-virus software and check again...

Until then - delete \'em and wait and see if it happens again..

One of the people at my work is having the exact thing happen to him as well.  Just starter a couple days ago.
