Its idiots like you that add to the mess from the infected idiots. The 
poor innocent victims of your spamming have every right to blacklist you 
and do drastic nastyness to your link.

Now. THINK AGAIN!

Nice.

Since the software I use does *not* send notices to infectees of viruses 
known to forge the Return-Path and From headers... meaning it sends 
notices out to only those who are actually infected... would you rather 
the folks who are stupid enough to get infected in the first place just 
go on happily sending out the worm?

This software notifies them they have a problem.  What the hell is the 
problem with that?

In addition - let's set worms aside for a second and look at things like 
Macro viruses that infect Word documents.  If somebody sends me an 
infected Word document, they are notified.  In cases like that, why the 
heck wouldn't you want to notify them they have a virus?

And finally... it's my email server, I can do whatever I want with it, 
neener neener neener.  :-)
