Impressive. I didn't know the new server had a virus scanner on it.
Perhaps we should just delete these instead of forwarding them to the
list?
I'm also impressed that Sean moved to India:

The viruses, or the virus emails?
I was wondering what was going on myself. I've been a member of the list for
years now (non-posting) and this afternoon I get a notice that I've subscribed
to NANOG followed by two quick virus notices - and my list settings had been
dumped too.
Any ideas?
Yes, there was an email prior regarding list transition from Majordomo to
mailman.
If you missed the email, it is here:

Sorry about virus notices. Merit needs to change mailman (or MTA) settings
to drop virus-infected emails instead of stripping/bouncing/whatever.
If you'd like to discuss mailing list operations, you should do it on
nanog-futures@nanog.org, not here.
Thanks

See the message from Betty Burke from Thursday April 17th. New server,
new list. I'm guessing the virus notifications were accidentally missed
during the migration.

This has happened to me as well. I was a digest subscriber and now I'm
getting each message. Did someone tamper with the settings or was there
an administrative mistake?

It was an announced change.
List moved to new platform. Check your archives for:
Despite the chatter, I think we should all congratulate Merit on a
very smooth and orderly transition to the new server.
No, it was not perfect, but given all the possible outcomes, we are
definitely in the top quartile.
IMHO, of course.
