The problem with this approach is that some of us deal with clueless people, and the even more clueless Exchange Server which hides all internet headers when reading the message in Outlook.
Teaching people (and getting them to remember it) about clicking the View menu / options to even SEE the internet headers, much less scrolling through the tiny little box Microsoft gives you, is a pain in the ass to say the least. That's the reason I'd like the report IN the email, so people can see the obvious reasons the message was marked as spam right up front. Right now, that can't happen, unless the MIME problems are fixed in the release... (works FINE with plain-text messages, but more and more people are sending / receiving html mail these days which comes MIME encoded at least in a microsoft world) R > -----Original Message----- > From: Greg Ward [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, March 14, 2002 10:22 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [SAtalk] Re: More complex customizations (MIME, etc) > > [Rick Smith, quoting Jim Paris] > > 1) If a message is spam, it should not be modified, but instead be > > replaced by a multipart/mixed message where the first part is > > a text/plain containing the SpamAssassin report and the second > > part is a message/rfc822 containing the original, unmodified > > message.
