They are using amavisd-new, and when a virus attachement is found, they
run demime to delete it and allow the text part of the email to continue.
In those cases, in the email you see something like these headers:
X-AMaViS-Alert: INFECTED, message contains virus: Worm.SomeFool.Gen-1
X-Converted-To-Plain-Text: from multipart/mixed by demime 1.1d
X-Converted-To-Plain-Text: Alternative section used was text/plain
This is done on all suse lists, not only those that Chris handled. In this
case his absence has nothing to do with it, they are just trying to cope
with the malware that was making to the list and got broadcasted.
