Why do people keep talking about that sort of stuff. 
It is techinicaly impossibe to put a virus in an e-mail...

Let me rephrase that... You can't do it in such a way as to infect a
person's computer automaticaly, it would have to be an attachment. So you
just don't run the attachment. Also you can't write a platform independent
virus. An Windows virus will not affect a Mac or Unix or Linux or ...
Same for any of the others.
