w32.mimail.a@mm Question

Hi all

I got a bit of a shock about 20 minutes ago when w32.mimail.a@mm thought I might be a good target and sent me an email from admin@<my domain>

now my question, is someone on my network infected or could this be an external source trying to infect us?

I have added the string "admin@jhbchev.co.za REJECT" in the /etc/mail/access file to try to stop this email from being passed on to the account holder in the "To" field.
Will the above work?

I am also busy running "tail -f /var/log/maillog |grep admin@jhbchev.co.za" to try to monitor if & when it tries again.

Kind regards
