What that means is that systems should be used which can "forward as an attachment", so the original message, without any sort of modification, is forwarded as an unmodified attachment to a primary "this is spam coming your way" message. The recipient robot then needs to a) Verify this is indeed the situation, b) If the email it finds doesn't have a complete attached email, toss it away. c) If the email it finds does have a complete attached email, then throw away the shell/envelope and process the attachment only, passing it into Bayes. Sounds feasible to me, though beyond my capabilities at this point in time.
