What you are missing is that *if* it's an html spam eudora is not forwarding
the unrendered text (i.e. the html code) unless there has been some big
change in the latest release of eudora. For spam that is type html you must
get the unrendered (raw html) to SpamCop.

why no, no it's not an error. There are definite probelms with assuming that
you can simply forward from eudora successfully all the time -- I have seen
instances where the forward method causes eudora to html-ize all the
received headers and add them to the top of the spam body -- that produces
very wrong results and winds up with reports being sent all over the place.

have you opened the email, clicked blahblahblah and then right clicked and
done a view source? I suspect there is text there
