Best Answer

an email virus is simply put, a virus that you get through your email. you can get emails from different ways, such as visiting harmfull sites, or downloading harmful applications. as such, you can get viruses from downloading attachments in emails, or in some cases ive heard, from even just viewing the email. your best bet is to not even view emails that sund like they might be bad.
