Sorry 'bout that. More info follows;
Using Outlook 2003 (part of Office suite), under XP-Pro, fully patched.
Collecting from POP3, sending via SMTP
Not using email virus scanner, just to be sure I removed my AV (AVG) and
reinstalled in custom mode without any Outlook plugins etc.
Here is an example of what happens. I have obfuscated email addresses..
These were the headers of the originally received email;

--You can see the added lines (Thread index etc) and that the received-by
lines are now out of order. That makes tracing source of spam impossible.
HTH
Thanks in advance for your advice.

Reordered in which way?
What/been added/removed?
Which version of Outlook are you using?
Which mail account type are you using?
Are you using a virus scanner that integrates with Outlook which could have
caused this?
Don't be afraid to share some information which could allow us to provide
any answer.
