Thanks Remko. Yeah my email is all over the place. Price I pay to help out
;) 

I understand what you mean about the quoting of original senders. I'm CC'ing
the SA list to see if anyone there has any ideas for you. I've never run a
mail archive so I have no clue as to any solution other then runing sed :-) 

I'm just trying to take away anything Mr.Spammy may try to use. 

Thanks again for looking into it.
