I received six different e-mails today, all with an attached .txt file from 400-450 bytes. One of them seemed to come from another infected user, and the rest from different mailing bots. The names were:
"Network Security Department"
"Network Mail Storage System"
"MS Net Message Storage System"
"Microsoft Corporation Program Security Center"
"smtproutine@aol.com"
"MS Customer Assistance"
This is the text that preceded the e-mail and was inserted by Road Runner.
