The general rule (I'm inclined to say the absolute and only way) with Outlook and OE is to set up a folder, typically IMAP, and share it as a public folder to the clients, They can then drag&drop, or rightclick-and-Copy/Move the message into the ham or spam folder. You then harvest the IMAP folder(s) with some cron script and feed them to SA, or possibly by hand if you want to scan the stuff and make sure the users have a clue about what is ham and what is spam. Anything that requires forwarding or similar will screw up the message beyond usability. In theory forwarding *as an attachment* and then stripping the attachment out *should* work - but a number of people have said that Outlook (but not OE) screws this up too. A number of people have posted scripts or links to scripts to automate the learning process with this sort of a setup. Loren
