[perl-win32-gui-users] How to inspect Outlook 2002 internet header programmatically

#- -- This program inspects the internet header of all Microsoft Outlook
(2002 SP-2)  messages in the user-defined "MyAccount" 

#--  directory to determine if the email was sent to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]   If this is not the case, then it is spam and

#--  the program puts the email in the "Deleted Items" folder.  If the
email was sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] place

#-- the email in the MyAccount->Filtered folder.  This program assumes
Microsoft Outlook is running.  This program

#-- does not cause the Outlook Security Window to open, so nothing to
worry about.
