Swen Worm Zapper


I have a c# console app that needs a bit of testing before I make it available
for free (with source) to everyone.

It's a simple program - at this time - which connects to your POP3 server,
downloads _only the headers_, and if you have specified the delete (/d) switch
it deletes messages matching the following rule:

Size > SizeThreshold
To header != Regex

All parameters - server, Size, Regex, etc - are in a config file and modifiable.
Later I'll do a more sophisticated winforms version and make its source
available too.

I'll take the first five people who want the source and executables. Then I'll
post another message here annoucing the cutoff. After testing I'll make an MSI
available on my website.

If, like me, your connection is being swamped downloading copies of the Swen Worm and bounce messages, you might find the utility I wrote today useful. Source for the utility is distributed with the Abderaware Mail for .NET demo package. Later (tonight?) I'll _may_, time permitting, make an executable only with the registered version of the components so that the hourly nag-screen does not have to be tolerated. After installation the...

<OT about the worm> Jeessh, a lot of people have my email address. I have received about 500 copies of the worm in the last 24 hours. My mail spool at work was sooooo full I couldn't get out or relay or anything. The wierd part is that it's my work address, and I'm subscribed to almost all my lists through the address above or my previous home address. YEARS ago I was using the work address for lists, but not for a LOOOOOOOOOOOONG time....

As many of you know, I occasionally get messages from the MS team on various things. Today I got the following, and (personally) I think it certainly is worthy of passing on. If you haven't protected yourself from the sasser worm, GET THE HECK OFF THE NET!! <Grin> No, seriously, get the patch. And a firewall. Even one of the free personal ones like Zome Alarm or Outpost or whatever, and then hopefully, someday, all this ......

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.
