CBQ list,
I just pulled this from the Yahoo Groups site regarding the recent bout of
virus emails.
Dave
Dear Yahoo! Groups Members,
Due to a recent outbreak of computer viruses being transmitted via email
messages on the internet, Yahoo! Groups is experiencing delays in delivering
group messages. Additionally, a recent virus is generating emails which
appear to come from Yahoo! Groups. These messages state that "your email
account has been temporarily disabled", or that "our main mailing server
will be temporarily unavailable for the next two days" and more. These
messages are not official notifications from Yahoo! but rather are generated
by a virus on another person's computer.
To improve performance, and to help reduce the spread of viruses to our
users, Yahoo! Groups has had to temporarily reject some messages. Based on
an advisory <http://securityresponse.symantec.com/> posted by a leading
anti-virus company, Groups will temporarily reject messages with the
following subject lines:
* test
* hi
* hello
* Mail Delivery System
* Mail Transaction Failed
* Server Report
* Status
* Error
* E-mail account disabling warning.
* E-mail account security warning.
* Email account utilization warning.
* Important notify about your e-mail account.
* Notify about using the e-mail account.
* Notify about your e-mail account utilization.
* Warning about your e-mail account.
If you have received a message rejection notice with a link to this page,
but did not attempt to post a message to your group, your computer may have
been infected. If you are confident that your computer is not infected but
your message was rejected, please try posting a new message with a subject
line different than those listed above.
We can assure you that this is only a temporary measure and hope to restore
message delivery to normal as soon as possible.
