Despite the popular impression, I do not spend every waking minute reading
this list.  Yes, I received it.  No, I didn't read it until recently.
It wouldn't have made much difference anyway, since the virus would have
gone through anyway.

I have added one safeguard to the list to prevent such problems, and will
add another in a day or so once I'm sure the first one is causing no
difficulties.
