      Email sent by (debian-user@lists.debian.org) at IP 218.163.150.54
      addressed to (bob@cavu.com)
      with subject (Subject: Re: Re: Thanks!)
      has been blocked on FBD in /var/spool/smtpd/badfname/smtpdIsrgO0
      because of a dangerous attachment file name, due to
      dangerous extension.
      This has been done because it could be a new virus that is not yet
      in our database.
      

      Please correct the attachment file name in the attachment and resend,
      if you are the sender.

      The dangerous extension in attachment file name trigger was:

    filename: bad extension: document.pif

      
      
    Note that if any of the following characters are part of a file name (except
    that '/' and '\' are allowed in archives), it is considered a virus:

         !*|";<>{}/`\
         tab or newline

    Non-printable characters are represented by 'Z' characters.

      Non-infected attachments, if any, can be recovered on request if
      policy and time allows and justification can be made.

      If you know the sender (debian-user@lists.debian.org) at IP 218.163.150.54,
      you should warn the sender that their system may be infected and that
      they should run a virus scanner, rebuild their system, or take
      other action to remove their infection.

      If they are sending legitimate data to you, perhaps they could send
      it as ordinary text that will not get filtered as suspicious.

      If you do NOT know the sender then likely he is an infected spammer
      or hacker so you should not send him or her email.
      Your system was not harmed as this virus was blocked.
