  Q: Will the virus impact my Macintosh if I am using a non-Microsoft
     e-mail program, such as Eudora?

  A: If you are using a Macintosh e-mail program that is not from
     Microsoft, we recommend checking with that particular company. But
     most likely other e-mail programs like Eudora are not designed to
     enable virus replication.

So I guess "enable virus replication" is a Microsoft feature.
