The problem is that Outlook can't do this - if you forward as attachment it loses the 
headers (complicated by the fact that it appears to keep them if you're viewing with 
the Exchange
connector, but loses them over Pop3 or Imap).  Other mailers keep the message 
unmolested - indeed I have a script that scripts the attachment and passes it to 
sa_learn automatically.

If it keeps the message ID intact you could in theory keep a database of all messages 
that had passed through the server, and use that as a lookup for the original message 
text.  IIRC, though, Outlook doesn't even keep that.

OT: On Outlook with Exchange 2000 you can do a poor mans 'save message' by installing 
Outlook Spy, viewing the IMessage container of the message, then selecting the 
PR_INTERNET_CONTENT value, open it, view as text then save it.... It probably wouldn't 
be too hard to make a plugin that did this, too.
