Hi,

Closing the list and creating a new one could be an option... for now. What 
about in a month time? Couldn't we be reached by a virus/worm again.

I guess the best thing would be that the list have an anti-virus filter in 
input.
I personally use clamav and am pretty happy with it. So far all viruses have 
been stopped (quarantined) before reaching my mailbox.

Cheers,
Roger
