Our spam filter vendor would like spam emails forward to them as an
attachment.  I would have thought that would be an option on the right-click
menu, but I don't find it.  For now, I'm saving the mail to a file and
forwarding that file.  But is there an easier way?

thx

Go into Tools -> Options.  Somewhere in there you will find a global
option as to how forwarding is handled.  When you forward inline, you
NEVER send the original e-mail to the new recipient.  Instead you
always send an edited version (inline to the body of your new message)
and where all the original headers are stripped out (which is very
important in spam fighting).

Correct.  To be explicit, Tools>Options>E-mail Options, drop-down "When
forwarding a message".  Select "Attach origiinal message".
