Expand Post »
Hi...

Recently I have been receiving emails with the following message and two attachments (one is Att00055.dat and the other is a Mail Delivery (failure tslee@magix.com.sg)):

"Subject: [WARNING: VIRUS REMOVED]Returned mail:see transcript for details

The original message was received at Fri, 22 Jun 2007 10:34:44 +0800
from bb220-255-154-243.singnet.com.sg [220.255.154.243]

----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors -----
<tslee@magix.com.sg>
(reason: 550 5.1.1 <tslee@magix.com.sg>... User unknown)

----- Transcript of session follows -----
... while talking to smtp.magix.com.sg.:
