As I said in my original email:

"How it even made it past the filters, since marketplace is a closed 
list, warrants further investigation, but all email in+out is 
scanned, and attachments aren't allowed on any list."

Ie, I'm looking into it, but it's not a huge issue because you can't 
get a virus from any of our lists anyway.
