I'm using MailScanner on a Linux box and recently installed MailWatch. I 
reconfigured MS to save a copy of every message for a couple of weeks. I 
just have the users forward a copy of the spam email to a spam email 
account. I can then search for that message using MailWatch and then 
submit the original to the sa-learn. I find it much easier then trying 
to teach Outlook users how to resend a message so the original info is 
preserved.
