How much protection is enough.....

I fiddled yesterday with the settings in E2K3 and found myself the
better solution.  I am looping the messages now through a smack together
out of the scrap box PII 400 with Linux, ClamAV and Qmail.  I must admit
that I am quite proud of it. ;-)

	I looked in the headers and noted an address
	(tony07-108-63.inter.net.il [80.230.108.63
	on one of the messages that did not get picked up by my
roadrunner
	pre-scanned virus scanner. I noticed a lot of messages from
redhat.com
	address with different email accounts from different lists.
	
	Do you think that the mailing lists need a virus scanner to
proeect
	users of M$ products from getting zapped by virus on the
archives?
	
	Should the archives drop the attachments? Or should they just be
purged
	by some AV scanner to rid the archives from virus?
	
	Later,
	
	Jim
	
	PS - Using Linux w/o Windows access, but concerned about the
mail
	scanners picking up the virus alerts.
