Gambia-L, I received a mail from Brother Kabir just a moment ago because he received an email with Gambia-L manager's address as the sender. Looking at the mail header below, one can see that the virus was sent from The Gambia. The person is using a dialup account from Quantum. It is from one [log in to unmask] but the "From" address has gambia-l-request <[log in to unmask]>. For your information, The <[log in to unmask]> address is an alias at St. Johns and only sends mails to all listmanager's individual e-mail accounts. So in reality no list manager has that as the sender in their mail program. Therefore, try to see the details of the mail header to see the origin whenever you receive a suspicious mail. There are viruses circulating the internet and some of them have a false sender's addresses. Make sure that your antivirus program is updated because there are people with bad intentions who make or send these viruses.
