Strange email
Has anyone received an email that appears to be from
"geronimo-dev@incubator.apachetE" with the subject "Weeeeee! ;)))" and an
attached file called TextDocument.zip? I'm suspicious that someone is
mining the geronimo mailing list and trying to spread spam, at the least, or
a virus, at the worst.
Regards,
Peter Lynch

I got 10 or 15 of these from various sources this morning with various
subjects and file names. I'm pretty sure it's a virus. Most likely a
list subscriber's computer got infected.
