  * '''AOL's integrated email client''': Redirecting mail is not available. (Dave Goldsmith) 
  * '''Eudora''': Select the message, go to the "Message" menu, choose redirect, fill in the address, and choose send. (BrianCorcoran and ErikWheeler) 
  * '''Evolution''': Select the message. In the "Actions" menu, choose the "Forward" submenu (not "Forward message", the "Forward" submenu). Pick "Redirect", fill in the "To" field, and press "Send". (JohannesUllrich)
- * '''Groupwise 5.5''': GW can't bounce a message (5.5EP can't anyway), it can only forward. Select the message, Actions menu, Forward. Type in the address and click on Send.  At the receiving end a procmail recipe is needed to delete the headers as far as the string "message/rfc822" plus the blank line after it. All the header info is preserved by GW.  Note that GW 5.5 is not a good IMAP client, use something else and much hair loss will be avoided (JonGerdes)
+ * '''Novell GroupWise''': Note the current (as of this writing) version of GroupWise is v6.5. In general, the stock GroupWise client can't "bounce" a message, because the message has been converted to the internal GroupWise format (i.e. no longer in SMTP format). One workaround would be to write a GroupWise C3PO (Custom 3rd-Party Object - see http://developer.novell.com/ndk/gwc3po.htm) to add this functionality to the client. Using the stock client, to pass a SPAM (or HAM) message along to a collection point, use Forward to send it from GroupWise (select the message, Actions menu, Forward; type in the address and click on Send). At the receiving end, you'll need a Procmail receipe (or similar tool) to delete the headers down to the string "message/rfc822" plus the blank line after it. All the header info is preserved by GroupWise. Note that older, unsupported versions of GroupWise either don't support IMAP (v5.2 and earlier) or don't support it well (v5.5/v5.5EP); this support is much-improved in v6.5. Finally, the GroupWise system includes a Trusted Application API (see http://developer.novell.com/ndk/gwtapp.htm) with which you could implement a more-direct connection to SA. (JonGerdes & PsiCop)
  * '''KMail''': In recent versions of KMail (1.6 and later) you need to copy the message first to your "sent-mail" folder. Then choose the command "Send again..." from the menu "Message". (MalteStretz)
  * '''Lotus Notes''': Does not seem to have a method to resend messages. (DennisHennen)
  * '''Microsoft Outlook 97''': Double-click on the message so it opens in a new window. Click on Tools-Resend This Message. A warning will appear about you not being the original sender of the message. Click Yes. A message window appears. Update the To: field and click on 'Send'. (DaveGoldsmith)
