My setup only mentions klez infections to me, and the recipient, and does not try to contact the sender (because it's certainly forged). It will however respond to the sender of an email containing an older virus which doesn't forge headers.
I'd contact the mail system admin and inform him that his server is errantly responding to klez emails, which are almost certainly coming from someone that's not mentioned in the headers.
Of course, the real problem is that the tools he's using need to be fixed, but he's running commercial tools, so the mail admin isn't likely to be able to fix his own tools.. (it's that closed source thing again).
So how's it feel to be joe-jobbed by a virus? :)

Well, maybe they're not bogus, maybe the virus randomly picked your e-mail address when being sent?
Or... have you checked to see that you don't get spam about buying anti-virii
software 4 hours later...?
I'm getting seriously pissed off about all these Norton-spams, and I don't see
Norton doing anything about it; that's NOT good business, and in my book
they're as bad as if they'd done the spamming themselfs.
