<DIV><FONT face=Tahoma size=2>I went back to look at the backscatter that I was
sending. While the subject says "E-mail viruses detected" the
subject of the email is saying "Executable DOS/Windows programs are dangerous in
email".</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Tahoma size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Tahoma size=2>I thought it was a good idea to indicate if
someone had sent a blocked filename or filetype or blocked content. It
turns out that MailScanner was not finding a virus it was blocking on the file
type.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Tahoma size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Tahoma size=2>Thus, I will just turn off the total "Notify
Senders".</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Tahoma size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Tahoma size=2>Thanks to Alex and Doug for pointing me to re-read
the backscatter to fully understand what was happening,</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Tahoma size=2>When my server receives a virus, it is sending
backscatter to notify the sender. As expected most of the virus are
probably spam. I know that I am missing a setting, but I have looked
through MailScanner.conf and have set the settings that I think are related
(see below). Please tell me what I am missing.</FONT></DIV>
