mh-e: Redistributing
8.4 Redistributing Your Mail
============================
The command ‘M-d’ (‘mh-redistribute’) is similar in function to
forwarding mail, but it does not allow you to edit the message, nor does
it add your name to the ‘From:’ header field. It appears to the
recipient as if the message had come from the original sender. When you
run this command, you are prompted for the recipients.
For more information on redistributing messages, see ‘dist’(1). Also
investigate the command ‘e’ (‘mh-edit-again’) for another way to
redistribute messages (Editing Again).
The option ‘mh-redist-full-contents-flag’ must be turned on if
‘dist’(1) requires the whole letter for redistribution, which is the
case if ‘send’(2) is compiled with the BERK option (which many people
abhor). If you find that MH will not allow you to redistribute a
message that has been redistributed before, turn off this option.
The hook ‘mh-annotate-msg-hook’ is run after annotating the message
and scan line (Sending Mail).
