If I get e-mail from the customer with virus I'll inform him/her about the virus. 99.9% of customers would eliminate the source of the virus. If they refuse to do so I would probably not want to deal with them even as customers. It would not make any impact on the business if I lost 0.1% of my customers and that action would actualy work for me because all good people out there would know I don't challenge my values. It is like going to an unsanitized doctor's office, catching something there and doctor's claiming: 'you didn't get it from my office you got it from one of my patients'. That is what doesn't make scence.... I can even handle annoying recruter's e-mails but not e-mails with viruses. Noone asks you to block ALL e-mails but when the source of inconvinience has been identified why not to take care of it?

Anyway, I am giving up.
