Virus in spamgourmet?

I have just received a mail with an "hidden" spamgourmet address.

Woul it be possible that a virus occurs on the spamgourmet servers?

possible, I guess, but not likely -- the servers run stripped down slackware linux.

Are you sure the message actually came from spamgourmet? There are a bunch of viruses going around windows boxes, and pretending to be "from" addresses they find in the address books of the windows users. Check the headers to see where it really came from.

I am absolutely NOT sure...

I have headers but seem to be forged.

What I find very strange is that it use a SG address I dont often use.

The other possibility is that I have the virus on my PC.

I run AVG and also the online Antivirus from secuser and both assume there is no virus on my PC...

Thanks

Xavier

Xavier,

Why don't you post the full headers of your message (anonymizing your own address by replacing it with xxxx)? That will allow us to see what you received.

Xavier,

So far it looks like a regular spam, I don't see why you think it could have been sent by spamgourmet.

However, in order to trace that spam, we need all the headers, including ALL the "Received" fields. Please repost the complete headers.

Thanks,
