It seems to only being able to handle something that looks closely like a
forward as attachment, which is a change from what their instructions on their
web site said to do.  Previously the instructions were to forward it inline
with no quoting and preserving the header, an option that I can not find on
Mozilla.  I have not check their web site recently to see if they changed the
instructions.

I suspect that they can not handle a spamcop.net report format.
