This is my standard form letter back to people who want to tell me the exciting news about email viruses, as if I hadn't predicted them 5 years ago and spent every single announcement since then laughing my ass off at the victims.
A) Why are you sending this to me? I presume you just spammed some mailing list with this? In the incredibly unlikely event that I wanted your opinion, I'd tell you what it is and then procmail you into /dev/null so I wouldn't have to hear it. Till then, sit down and shut the fuck up.
B) I use mailx on a FreeBSD box to read my mail, and I even use procmail to autodelete anything that's mime/multipart. I'm immune. Morons like you who run Outhouse and M-Sexchange are just victimizing yourselves. You've let Microsoft paint a big ol' "please anally rape me!" sign on your backs and then have the gall to complain about it because you were too stupid to do anything about it. If you got an operating system instead of an automated virus loader like Windoze, you wouldn't have this problem.
