I'd just like to point out to anyone currently doing this that using the EICAR anti-virus test string in your email signature file, while moderately funny, causes all of your messages to be trapped by my AV filter, as well as any replies that don't edit out the test string. I'm tired of combing through my spam/AV filter looking for such messages in case they contain something of interest, so from now on I'm just not going to bother to read them. -- Jim Goltz <Jim.Goltz at gmail.com> -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
