Will Postini send a notification email to the originator of the infected email?

0

No, Postini/McAfee will only send notification to you, the recipient. Most infected files are attached to unwanted or unsolicited messages. On occasion, you may see notifications regarding virus-infected email that seems to have come from a trusted source. This is generally because most virus/worm writers create programs that steal legitimate email addresses from an infected computer’s address book, and then spoof the from line in messages that the virus propagates.
