Fwd: Possible virus via httpd server

[William A Rowe Jr <wrowe@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Is there a kind soul fluent enough Spanish to write a note to this user and 

help them out of their perhaps-unsolicited subscription in their native tongue?

Two polite attempts to reach them have failed completely, so I'm simply 

going to filter this sender to /dev/null, sigh.

Speaking of Spanish, there is an offer for new translations of httpd that

we would love proof-reading help with, if you are interested.  Please join

up with docs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx if you would like to help review translated

docs pages!

Cheers,

Bill

Dear reader,

I am a project member at Apache, and I ask you to pay close attention.  I want you to help you *stop* receiving emails from apache.org.

I offered you help last month, you didn't follow up.

I NEED you to FORWARD me one of these emails *as an attachment*.  If I see the attachment, it will tell me *how* you are subscribed and *where* the email was directed.  It was not directed to you and was not emailed to info@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx because that email is not a subscriber.

Otherwise, please tell me instead what email addresses forward to your info@ email account?  I will hunt those down and remove them from the subscriber list.

But if you don't follow these instructions I simply cannot help you :(  

If it would help, I can pass this on to a speaker of Espanol for easier communications?

Kindly yours,

Bill

I tried the submission you suggest.  It said it is an executable file,
suitable for my Linux box.  I don't think I am about to run it.  Note that
my ESET NOD32 virus software finds nothing wrong with it.

Thanks,
Mike.
