Just to clarify what david is saying, There does exist a new clever virus that looks into the infected computer address book of outlook express and chooses every address to SEND TO but one address to SEND FROM. The name of the address sending could be anyone who happens to be in that address book which in this case was the listserv. What this means is somone who has "listserv@gerry.vanagon.com" in their outlook express adress book was infected with a worm. I would like to request that those individual who are using outlook express to check their email please delete "listserv@gerry.vanagon.com" from their address and if you happen to get an attachment from the listserver just delete it and realize another listmember has been hit. regards gary

It's undoubtedly a copy of some version of the Klez worm, which has various clever ways of concealing where it really comes from. If you forward it to me with complete headers I may be able to say a little more about it. david
