I'd like to add to what Bob Ringwald said. You will not receive attachments
from DJML. Many of you have received messages that appear to be from either
DJML or Islandnet (the host of DJML) containing an attachment. In some cases
your virus software will have removed the attachment but allowed the message
to pass into your mailbox. These attachments, of course, are viruses.

Folks, if you learn anything from this, it should be that email is not
secure and addresses can be forged. That means you should not open ANY
attachment you did not expect -- not even from "known" sources -- until you
have scanned it with a freshly-updated virus program.

And take my word for it, if you received one, so did millions of other email
users. Please don't clutter up the list with messages saying "I got it too."
