Hello,
I am on server 7, and I've been getting numerous emails saying that (name)@dc3k.com has sent an email that contains a virus. However, I do not have any emails by the name jake, jack, etc.
Has this server been infected with a new virus? It's spamming emails like crazy, I've received about 30 in the past five minutes.
Thank you.

No, we are not infected. We just cannot be infected by mydoom because we run generally linux and you are on linux and to the top we don't read mail on teh server 
We just hit by large amount of bogus traffic created by this virus. Obviously your email was in smb's addressbook whoase PC was infected with mydoom and mydoom started to send mails here and there using your email in From: field. That's why you get bounces.
Below is how virus is distributed.

In its movement through the Internet, Mydoom works like a standard e-mail virus: A Windows PC user activates the virus by opening its message's virus- laden attachment, and the virus sends itself out to the addresses it finds in the PC's address book. It also tries to spread by copying itself into any shared directories in the PC that are used by the KaZaA peer-to-peer file sharing network.
Okay, sorry about that, I just wasn't too sure, and I didn't want to be closed because of spam.
Sorry for the inconvenience,
