Hi

A word documented sent as an attachment got quarantined by MailScanner
version 4.29 but goes through fine on version 4.31

This is the error it gives.

The following e-mail messages were found to have viruses in them:

  Subject: .........................

   Report: Denial of Service attack in message!
           Denial of Service attack in message!
=================================================

I've replaced email addresses with dots as it's not relavent.

Is this something I need to worry about? Or can I forward this
attachment to the recepient?

Regards
