Why not just call Apple and ask them? Hereâs a number I use: 800-275-2273.

Thank you for the help.
It took me some time to find the Export feature under File > Database. All I
could find under the Help menu was "import and export connection settings".
I had already Redirected the phishing email to Apple, but sent it again anyway
using the method you describe.
Before selecting the email I changed it to Show Full Header. Was it really
necessary to do that - or would the full header have arrived with the email
anyway?
Thanks again,
Frank
