Missing headers when forwarding html message as RFC822

[Mark Walters]

Hi

I have tried several cases, including generating a message with just the
two parts [ multipart/related ] [ text/html ] and forwarding that, and
they all work for me. Can you provide a test message where it fails?

Also what version of emacs are you running? I think all the rfc822
forwarding is handled by emacs/gnus message-mode

Best wishes

Mark
