Well then, tell them not to :)  Outlook Express and Windows Mail are
fine.  Outlook 2003 supposedly needs a special program like
http://www.olspamcop.org/ to forward properly, although if you select
multiple messages to forward, then it will forward them in some kind of
possibly useful digest format.  Outlook 2007 introduces an explicit menu
item called "forward as an attachment" (Ctrl+Alt+F) but still mangles
the headers:
http://forum.spamcop.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=10241&st=0&p=70453&#entry70453

Outlook 2007 also mangles the headers (kind of reconstructing a
misleading semblance of what the original was) when moving between IMAP
folders.  Therefore, I wouldn't use spamassassin -r on spam from Outlook
users, but sa-learn to get tokens from the body text may be OK.

Actually, some users of Outlook 2003 do seem to be able to forward as
intact message/rfc822 attachment.  Not exactly sure how.

Anyway, the 1% using a better e-mail program may be all that's needed to
train Bayes.
