Well, the standards (RFC-822/2822) are clear, but with the dawn of viruses that forge sender addresses, creating bounces for viruses doesn't really do anybody much good, either. Refusing to accept viral mail is the best option if you can; failing that, I discard such messages. Frankly, I gave up bouncing viral mail after I got tired of answering complaints when someone got a bounce from a forgery... -- -Chuck
