Exactly. Maybe I should have phrased it better, but there was an email virus just recently that worked on this principle. It contained a link to an infected website instead of an attachment. You can't be infected by just reading the message, but if the link is the point of the message, then you are exposing the recipient to whatever is on the other side of the link. Personally, I always try to include something in the message that identifies me or my relationship to the recipient other than my email address. Just something to show that my message is not just the product of some script kiddie sorcerer's apprentice that doesn't really understand what they are playing with and thinks its real funny to annoy or harm other people out there and keep people working late hours when they could be at home with their shoes off or out trying to create some semblance of a life. Not that I have any strong feelings on the matter. :P
