An interesting thing I have noticed recently is that vsnl servers are scanning outgoing emails for virus affected attachement and deleting them. I have got recently, quiet a few messages, which have passed through vsnl (either inwards or outwards), where the main virus affected attachment is deleted, converted into a simple txt file.
Not what you would expect from vsnl, would you ?

Infact from noone in list. But I have one doubt, does mailman scan emails for virus?
