Hi,

Are you using a windows machine? Is it infected?

Did you check the headers of your message as sent by the scribus.info
mail server?

Did you read this in the headers?
==============================================================
X-Spam-Report: Spam detection software, running on the system
"scribus.info", has
     identified this incoming email as possible spam. The original

     has been attached to this so you can view it (if it isn't spam)

     similar future email. If you have any questions, see
     The administrator of that system for details.

Have you checked your computer with anti virus software?
