My apologies for posting the headers.

When I try to report the spam using my normal process, SC reports that 
there is no body. Here's a tracking URL, 
http://www.spamcop.net/sc?id=z1771047049z066412834ebe56482e1f68c1f62c84f4z

I have also tried to cut and paste the spam as well. But I get the same 
result. When I look at the email, it appears to be pretty large and is 
encoded in base64. Also is in multiple parts.

Thanks,
Gary
