Will the list member(s) that are getting their e-mail through the vt.edu 
mail server please immediately contact their administrator to get their 
misconfigured virus scanner fixed?


A an auto responder should never be responding to an e-mail with mailing 
list headers.

A virus scanner should not be sending notifications out of it's own 
network.  None of these notifications are going to anyone that can do 
anything about the virus.

A technical school should know better than to do this.
