Thought I'd quantify that:

[root at www ~]# cd /var/virusmails/
[root at www virusmails]# grep -il ebay *
virus-7g8Fbo7OGQOo
virus-Y7L+JIsqXiI3
[root at www virusmails]# grep -il ebay * | xargs ls -l
-rw-r-----  1 amavis amavis  2914 Jun 24 20:18 virus-7g8Fbo7OGQOo
-rw-r-----  1 amavis amavis 13629 Jun 26 17:14 virus-Y7L+JIsqXiI3

These were sent to venix.com using lkvam and info.  The actual name
should have been ebay, so the phishers did not get then email address
from ebay.  

Phishing emails don't usually get past amavis.
