heres a question that i have been pondering for a while.

let say someone created a virus that was spisificly made to attack a mail server... lets also say that it has a list of addresses from that server programed into it...

would that virus be able to send it self so many times to all of the recipitants so that it makes the server run out of space????

i have never worked with a mail server from the concel side..
are there ways to stop this from happening????
