think an AV scanner would detect these messages, as they are all text (or
did my AV scanner strip something out?).

the one shown in the From: line.

Forged, forged, forged

I'd like to see how a Linux mutt user like myself got infected with a
WINDOWS virus...

If you think you've got it bad. I've just come back from vacation to find
a 1,000 AV alerts in my Inbox from all around the world... I have more AV
alerts than SPAM... (life is tough)
