The answer, in my case, is no.  However, I've received emails with
infected MS-Word attachments that were detected and cleaned before
passing them on to another colleague.  I use OpenOffice, and never would
have seen the infection...but was pleased that I wasn't part of the
chain passing it along.  I don't mind the extra cycles used on my email
server to be a good netizen in that respect.
