Further to my last post, I think this one may have come from the factory (going
entirely on the fact I had one that appeared to come via the factory, and the
existence of the draper.doc filename). Mark - could you check the header for
the SMTP routing, please? Andy, could you check you haven't got an infected
machine, please? Details of a removal tool are at
