In a sort of good news/bad news irony. The good news is, the leading
underscore is the very fact means this reflector won't forward such messages
to us. The bad news is, this virus not only steals names from the infected
mailbox, it also steals subject lines...so it can make the message appear at
first glance as if it came from
a reply to the reflector.
The precautions Dave outlined are very sensible.
