How do you figure?  The meaning of "SHOULD" in an RFC has been pretty clear
for a few decades now... if the RFC is broken, then the RFC is broken, but
it sounds like Outlook complies.

Not to mention the fact that SA filters for spam, not RFC compliance.  Even
assuming arguendo that Outlook *isn't* complying with the RFC, if a large
volume of ham is generated by clients that break the RFC, then that
particular breakage is obviously not good evidence of spamming.
