Hi everybody.
I´ve got seven 4.6 Domino and Notes servers running on NT boxes. One of them is
running as a bridge between my Notes domain and Internet, routing all mail
through a Unix box. I have received the message with the attachment named
1._AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA........... and five minutes later my inbound server hang up.
I think this attachment is the problem, because I have an antivirus running and
checking all the files attached at the incoming mail.
Have anybody been in trouble with this kind of filenames and antivirus? I have
no test servers by now, and I can't check again the problem in a few days...
Regards
