DSpam checker a question

Is it still useful to send headers? Mozilla Thunderbird allows forwarding of emails as attachments inc headers. If forwarding is still worthwhile, is the attachment method OK for purpose?
No one has to agree with my opinion, but in the time I have left a miracle would be nice.

No sending as attachments is no good apparently.
What you have to do is select for Thunderbird to display the full headers, then when you forward normally the full headers will be there.

Thanks but other question was if it was still useful to send anyway.

Re: DSpam checker a question

Plusnet only feed a subset of the emails forwarded in to the training. If when selecting the emails to use, some are found as in-line with the full headers (which are perfect format for training the filters), some as attachments and some without the full headers, guess which ones they will use? So although they could possibly be used it's almost certain you are wasting your effort if you submit not in the required format.
