When sending e-mails from my Outlook account to an e-mail account that uses 
spam assassin,  I was told my e-mail was ending up in the spam box from time 
to time.    I tested the e-mail with my version of spam assassin and found the 
following header on my e-mail.  I contacted Microsoft and they checked my 
Outlook program and then said I needed to report the problem to you:
