    WARNING to all members: I have just received a malicious email
      which supposedly came from WICEN Vic.  (It didn't). 
    
    This email, received a few minutes ago, had malicious content. 
    
    It was titled "[ vic.wicen.org.au ] WARNING The domain
        "vic.wicen.org.au" has reached their disk quota."
    Message content included
    
    "The domain "vic.wicen.org.au" has reached their disk quota.
    The account currently uses 97.97% of its disk capacity.
    
      You should follow the link bellow to auto extend your disk
      capacity for free as soon as possible in order to prevent the loss
      of any files and future emails. Use the Disk Capacity tool ......"
    
    I have not copied the the rest of the email, including the link,
      because the link is MALICIOUS even though it looks like it is from
      WICEN. 
    
    If you receive a similar email, delete it. 
    
    
    
    Cheers,  John  VK3ZRX
