I use maildrop with courier. Virii get filed into a separate folder (since
Im the mail administrator here, I like to see what and where Im getting
virii from).

Still, it pretty lame when you get virii from a *Linux* mailing list ;-)

Borg n.

In "Star Trek: The Next Generation" the
Borg is a species of cyborg that ruthlessly seeks to incorporate
all sentient life into itself; their slogan is "Resistence is
futile. You will be assimilated." In hacker parlance, the Borg
is usually Microsoft, which is thought to be trying just as
ruthlessly to assimilate all computers and the entire Internet to
itself (there is a widely circulated image of Bill Gates as a
Borg). Being forced to use Windows or NT is often referred to as
being "Borged". Interestingly, the Halloween Documents
reveal that this jargon is live within Microsoft itself. (Other
companies, notably Intel and UUNet, have also occasionally been
equated to the Borg.) See also Evil Empire, Internet E

Fair point, but if you've spent any time in #gentoo on irc, then you
know how ignorant some "linux users" can be.

Seriously though, if you use windows and you are subscribed to this
list, *please* check your machine.

Entirely possible it's a windows user who isn't subscribed to this
list doing the sending...

Well, seeing as it would have to be somebody with both
gentoo-mips@lists.gentoo.org *and* tuxus@gentoo.org in their address
book, not likely.
