| 242879 | 2004-06-08 10:06:00 | I have just had 2 e-mails appear in my inbox stating that 'MailMarshal (an automated content monitoring gateway) has not delivered the following message: blah blah blah because it contained an executable file' It then goes to list an e-mail address. The point is that I do not know the e-mail address that I purportedly sent an e-mail too. I then went to the web site of where the e-mail address was supposed to be sent to find out that it belonged to a group of chartered accounts in Wellington (I am based in Auckland) that I had also not heard of before. What could be causing this and should I be doing something about it? I have Nortons Internet Security installed and the virus definitions are automatically updated. I also keep the Windows security updates updated regularly. |

Someone with a virus is sending out emails with your address in the From Field and as a result you get all the undelivered notifications. It is quite common, just ignore them and delete. |
