[oclug] Top if my head sugestion for enhancment to GUI mailclients.

I am sending this to the two lists as between them there are several folks who are on various projects.. The fiollowing idea came into my mind thismorning - a brush-off buttonbar for mail clients..

For a while the US Federal Trade Commission was asking that all deceptive looking SPAM e-mails should be sent to uce at ftc.gov  The RCMP is curently asking that any of those "african" offers that want you to hide zillions of US dollars buy letting them flow money in you bank account (mostly out no doubt) be sent to wafl at phonebusters.com

How about if a user could easaly set up a button beside their delete button that whould 

1) forward the entire message- including headers to such projects.
2) automaticaly delete the original.

You could then click on SCAM, or WAF rather than the delete, and report this without any real extra effort.
