Re: Thunderbird includes all headers on Forward - Why?

Trying to get someone setup with Thunderbird because it's supposed to be
good. We run Outlook so I'm out of my element here. First problem was
that Thunderbird was forwarding an email as an attachment to a new
email, not simply as a normal forward. Found this setting as "Forward
As" dropdown and change it to forward inline. However, now the forwarded
message shows all the headers from the message being forwarded. Is there
a way to stop that? I just want a "normal" forward setup that includes
from, to, subject and date. Just like a normal email package. Ideas?

Walden:

Unfortunately, I can't add anything useful to you beyond what John said. His comment says how it's always worked for me. All I want to say is that I go exactly the opposite -- if I forward, or especially if I receive a forward, I want the e-mail item as an attachment. I often request to have things forwarded again, as an attachment. I want the item 'forwarded', rather than parsed and inserted into a new item.

I'd think "Just like a decent e-mail package."

Interesting how individual preferences and experiences color our impressions.
