I did not recognize it as a virus. I thought this was someone writing to
me, as happens fairly often. While I did not open in, I am caught in a
sortof loop with it however.  I replied to the email and explained I do
not open email attachments from people i do not know. Since then the scn
mail sender has tried maybe 100 times to send it, cannot, and sends me a
message that it is still trying. 

Anything to be done about that? I am going to WOMAD and will not be able
to log on to clean these messages out of my email so my email will
probably crash over the weekend. Anyway to get that daemon to stop?
