Ok folks,
This is interesting. The line of dashes was added by Yahoo. The two lines
of "xxx" were the contents of the attachment.
Evidently Yahoo Groups is "Deleting" the attachment and adding the contents
directly to email content. This is not exactly what I would have expected
although it does explain yesterdays goner msg's. The gibberish at the
bottom of the email WAS the virus - just not as a attachment and not in
executable format.
I am going to try and contact Yahoo Groups and see if I can find out why in
the world they would be doing this.

I'm sending this with a very small TEST.TXT file to verify if attachments
are indeed being blocked by the list.
