because the scanner was broken, and it let the virus through. As I have stated I have gotten email like that which did not scan positive for the virus like an 8K EFax attachment. Also it does that for people with a 59 byte signature file. It seems any sort of attachment email gets that message with the original message embedded inside of it.

There most likely is a bogus email with the virus that also says something like that as well.

Title is ""Alert: Virus Scan Unavailable, Attachment Not Scanned" [test]" where [test] is the name of the original email with the attachment. Test contains "ATT00224.TXT (59 B)" which is a really small file.
