virus warning message spam



So given that a) we don't run Windows, and b) every one of the Windows
email viruses going around spoofs the sender address, I'm *really*
sick of receiving warning messages from other people's poorly
configured virus filters.  I dug through my procmail log and found as
many of the subject lines from those messages as I could in order to
set up header_checks rules to block the damn messages.  I feel like
sharing, so the results are below.  :-)

Oh, and on this subject, I used to feel bad that majordomo replied
with a message whenever email was held for moderation, since it ended
up replying to the wrong person when it received virus messages, but
I'm doing virus filtering with amavis now, so I don't think those
messages are necessarily a bad thing anymore.

Add this to your header_checks pcre map (Postfix users only):
