Yeah, I've seen that one too... I also get one that is encoded in a way that Eudora can't handle and just ends up looking like.9Y&OV+/-I(y(C)O?`H1/2]On

Etc, etc... Continue the theme for a while, then attach a zipped up worm.
Count yourself lucky on the 30, I've clocked over 200 so far, not including all the bounces coming back from faked addresses on my domain... Sometimes I really hate having the catch-all email account.
I'm off to bed now, so I look forward to deleting a couple of thousand by the morning!
Oh dear... However much the idea of a DDOS against SCO makes me chuckle, the downside, for me at least, is the load on my email server. I've had over 200 attempted infections in the past couple of hours, and several dozen bounces due to attempted infections being sent from faked email addresses on my domain. I can hardley wait to see the mess when I wake up in the morning!
I foresee a day of sluggish internet and constant email server emptying later today... Oh joy!
