+
+To forward a message in mutt including all it's attachments, you can set the
+variable `mime_forward` as follows:
+
+`set mime_forward`
+`set mime_forward_rest=yes`
+
+This however forwards all headers, attachments etc as
+a single attachment.
+
+A similar approach happens if you type `b`. This bounces the message completely
+unmodified to a new address.
+However, using the above two methods there is no way to trim the message.
+
+Instead you can try:
+
+1. type `v` to get to the attachments screen, and then type `t` repeatedly
+ to tag the required attachments and then type `;f` to forward the tagged
+ attachments.
+2. Use the template method - type `Esc e` to resend the message using the
+ current message as a template.
