Yes, it will cause problems if you learn the forwarded message as-is. What you need to do is extract the attached email from the message (hopefully with the original headers intact), and feed it to SA as the user who originally received it. -- Bowie The problem is the original email is not attached, they just forward it to me. Is there a way to just feed the body of the message instead of the headers to bayes? Thanks Robert
