How to Create a Not Spam Report Button in Outlook

Introduction

When you receive an e-mail that you believe should not had been marked as [SUSPECTED SPAM], you can typically forward that e-mail as an attachment to our team to ham@deeztek.com. This usually involves selecting the e-mail in question, clicking on More in the Respond Outlook ribbon toolbar, selecting Forward as Attachment (Figure 1) filling out the To field with ham@deeztek.com and clicking Send (Figure 2).
