Forwarding Messages
[previous]
[next]
[table of contents] [index]
To send a copy of a message or messages,
select the message(s) in the Table of Contents.
There are two ways to select more than one message (though the
messages must be next to each other).
Click on the first line in the Table of Contents with your
first button, release the button, move to the last line, and click with
the third button.
That should select all the message lines (they'll be shown in reverse video).
Or you can click on the first message you want to forward with the
first button -- then, hold down the first button and drag the pointer
across the other messages -- release the first button when you've selected
all the message lines you want.
The selected message(s) should be in reverse video -- see
the Figure below.
Figure: Forwarding two messages
Next, select Forward from the Message menu -- or use the
accelerator,
META-F.
A composition window will open.
(If you already moved your second window, as in the Pick example,
the new composition window will automatically open in that place.
Otherwise, the composition window will open on top of the master window.)
Fill in the header.
You can add a note of your own above or below the forwarded messages.
You can edit the forwarded message(s), too, if you want.
Send or abort the messages in the usual way.
There's more information in the Section
More About Forwarding.
