Do not 'resend'. This will mash the headers.
The simplest method (but not necessarily for the user) is to have the user
create a new mail message, address it "to [EMAIL PROTECTED]" (or whatever) and
then
drag the spam message from their inbox into the message, then send the new
message. Dragging the spam from the inbox will turn it into an attachment.
Usually this will be a mime attachment. Sometimes various versions of
Outlook might decide to do it as a UUEncoded part of the body. (Usually
this only happens when you send an attachment using the "Send to" menu item
in some other program like Word.)
Obviously you can have a global address book entry for the spam and ham
addresses so that the user can just enter "spam" or "ham" or the like to
simplify things a little.
The trick though is dropping the spam message into a new message to make it
an attachment. Forwarding or resending the spam will mash the headers
beyond use. Of course, then you have to unwrap the attachment to process
the original message.
Another easier way is to make some IMAP folders on your server, possibly as
public folders, and then have the users attach to these folders. Then they
can right-click on the spam message, select "copy to folder", and select the
spam folder. That will do it for them, and you will get nice clean spam
messages in your spam folder. You can have a cron job harvest the folder
and clean it out every so often.
