Filter error responsible .Mac mail loss



Sources confirm that the emails not delivered during the type Apple's .Mac downtime have been permanently lost. A misconfigured filter against e-mail viruses caused the problem, which persisted for several hours on Monday. Apple has records of the sender addresses for all e-mail that were lost, but does not currently intend to release this information to .Mac members. Apple has not notified customers, and is reportedly deleting posts on its discussion board trying to convey information regarding the situation

I didn't catch this till now, but it looks like I received no e-mails from about 10:37 AM PST Monday to 3:15 AM Tuesday. Considering the network I am on has blocked all SMTP traffic to stop the My Doom virus (and hence I have to use web mail) for the past week having a Mac doesn't seem to have helped avoid the problems of viruses.
