[mew-int 00910] Re: Forwarding Inline

[henri at example.com]

i didn't post the origional question, but i would like to be
able to forward a "text only" message (ok, so i only
read/write emails in english...) and add some text "inline"
to it.

to do this currently i use the "E" command and change the
To: field accordingly

but it would be nicer to be able to optionally forward
"inline". guess the only change would be that "E" would
clear the To: field and hide the headers.
