Its my understanding from some folks on this list you know about such
things that this can't happen by simply opening and e mail. There was a
similar warning a couple of months ago where this was discussed. Perhaps
those who know could share once again about virus and e mail to give either
a warning or to say this can't happen for the peace of mind for all.
