[Healeys] Hartnett Spam

[Eric (Rick) Wilkins]

Actually, these can be more complicated than that. They don't copy your
address book, they exploit features of your mail program to actually forward
the spam through your email account.
For these types of email "viruses" you actually need to track your sent items
and turn off features that can be used in this way.
