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.
