Just in the last week, the number of messages with what I assume to be 
the Klez virus or a variant has exploded, at least for me.  Since we 
have no Windows machines I don't pay a lot of attention to email viruses 
and other malware, but I'm getting 20+ a day, all different insofar as 
 From and Subject headers, and I just want to kill them as spam.

Has anyone written a local rule for this?  I have just now started 
looking at the messages closely, and the key part seems to be an 
attachment of type audio/x-wav, with a filename of *.(?:pif|scr|exe|bat).
I can't imagine anyone sending a legitimate attachment with those 
criteria, so it should have a fairly high score, if not an automatic 
trap.

Question: does SA consider MIME sub-headers to be "header" or "body"?  
They are in the traditional RFC822 message body, but they're actually 
headers.

The other one I just get over and over and finally wrote a rule for is 
something with "Snowhite" and the 7 dwarves, and an attachment that is 
usually an .exe file.   I'm just scoring anything with /snowhite/i and 
an attachment as probable spam.
