There is a world of difference between a mail system designed to handle 600 users and one to handle the tens of thousands at vt.edu, or any decent sized campus. Universities are especially difficult due to internal politics. I am suprised their anti-virus software didn't kick in sooner, but they may be hand pruning virus emails already delivered to the 70k+ mailboxes they support. I haven't talked to their mail admins in some time, but last I did they were serving real inbox space to alumni, not just address forwarding. While not affiliated with vt.edu, I have the utmost respect for their security and systems programmers who give much back to the community through lecture and publication.
