If the OP would use option #1 or #2 at the link above, instead of using
#3, he'd have no problem--except having to log into the archive, find
the message, and then hit the "report as spam" button, or run a perl
script in his MUA, which may not support running such a perl script.

Which is the lesser of all the evils?  #1 seems like a no-brainer, the
least effort/PITA factor involved.
