I KNOW this isn't the forum for this, but for the last three days
I've been getting mail from all sorts of people I never heard of,
which contains some 170K attachment, and the following text:

Hi! How are you?
I send you this file in order to have your advice
See you later. Thanks.

And sometimes this text is in Spanish!

I've never been beseiged like this before, and I was wondering if
there was something nasty going round.

I suspect Sarasvati would appreciate it if you answered me personally
rather than to the list.
