never emails patches to people, and don't send people to post patches either

I know :-/

Yesterday when I got home I thought the 30 I got were a lot. I was showed
today, when I got home a few hours earlier than yesterday that 30 wasn't a
lot at all - about 125 were waiting for me today, and they're still coming
in

I had 142 when I woke up this AM. I've now set my AV program to just
quarantine w/o asking, took almost 10 mins of clicking Quarantine,
Finished for each infected e-mail to DL all the messages. I LOVE
Mozilla's "Junk" filtering capability. Once they're all downloaded,
they get taken from the Inbox and placed in a "Junk" folder for later
deletion, after making sure it didn't take ones I want. It's to the
point that I rarely see spam in the inbox...

I set up a few OE message rules that put them in a separate folder and mark
them as read

The only place I've seen these is in the NGs. I guess my ISP has a better
spam- and virus filter than yours. :-)

My mail account isn't with my ISP. The server admin has now set up
server-wide filters to eliminate these messages, not just for our
domain, but for all those on his server...
