Fun with e-mail viruses

In my e-mail box this morning:

Have a good day,
    The Zone38.net team                 http://www.zone38.net

That’s funny, I don’t remember sending myself any information about issues with my mail server… and what’s this about a Zone38.net “team”? Do I have multiple personalities or something? 🙂

“Your e-mail may contain viruses” indeed! I know better than to open that attachment… but then again, anyone who gets this e-mail at his own domain name ought to know better.
