Sorry for such offtopic, but 1) the reason of my question is quite
related to NT Emacs/Gnus 2) I don't know where to find info on MS
Outlook.

Is there any way to customize forwarding in MS Outlook so that it
forwards all headers of the original message ?

Actually I'm trying to make Gnus/Emacs work with MS Exchange server
(if anybody knows better solution, please inform me - but read below
for some details). Because of some changes in a company I'm working
for in a few weeks I won't be able to use POP3 server I'm using now
and POP3 will NOT be installed on MS Exchange server too (it's a
company policy, not an administrator decision).

The solution I'm trying to implement now is to make MS Outlook a
gateway between Gnus/Emacs and Exchange. Since MS Exchange
provides SMTP service (it seems that it won't be turned off), the
problem is with fetching incoming mail. So I wrote simple MTA that
simply saves incoming messages in the certain directory (it's enough
for Gnus) and made Outlook forward messages I'm interested in to that
MTA. The only problem is that MS Outlook strips almost all headers from the
message, so it's impossible to sort them and so on. Is there any way
to make Outlook forward messages verbatim ? Although even this
crippled solution may work (well, it's possible to sort messages
inside Outlook sending them to different addresses and then make
necessary fields in MTA based on recipient address) I hope it can be
enhanced.
