If my Gnu/Linux system doesn't have the tools to open it I don't open it. If I want to open it I reply to the sender and ask for it in a format that I have. So in short I don't need to forward things to a Windows machine. Hence I don't have that problem. Sending it to someone else is a different problem, which I really don't think is mine. |

If you're running a Linux mailserver (Postfix, Exim, Sendmail, etc.) that serves Windows clients you definitely need to run an a/v program on the server. Microsoft has been busy buying up a/v companies like RAV AntiVirus, sybari, and others. RAV was a popular Linux app, and Microsoft killed it dead. Another lesson in why the GPL matters. |

It's also been mentioned that, much as we may hate MS, the Ms users are not the point of our hatred (well maybe just a little). It does not make us good neighbors to pass along the joy. |
