[NCLUG] Follow-up to WARNING.

[Sean Reifschneider]

Apparently, this is a continuation of the sexyfun worm, though I haven't
been able to determine yet why it's suddenly causing interrupted service
after having sit around without causing any real problems for the mail
servers over the last 6 months.

I set up qmail to archive mail to the anon.lhs.mit.edu site instead of
trying to deliver it.  This costs a lot fewer resources than all-out
virus scanning, especially when the client isn't sure they can afford
several new machines and licenses to the virus scanners for a cluster of
boxes to scan them.
