The current version of Outlook 2003 SP1, and likely others follow (at least these rules: If you select MULTIPLE messages and hit Forward then the messages get properly (with full headers as received) attached -- BUT if you select one message the message gets 'edited' as the text of the outgoing message. If you drag a message into a draft message it SEEMS to get properly attached as above. My method is to ALWAYS select multiple messages (even when only one is desired) and then remove any 'extras' that I do not wish to send. A simple perl script (just a couple of lines) will split the message(s) back into individual messages that can be properly used for feeding Bayes or other classifiers.
