This was a feature I used back in 2003 to merge content from a few email accounts into my Fastmail account.
https://blog.fastmail.com/2006/03/14...ssages-action/

Effectively I could take a forwarded email, and copy the forwarded email bit into my own email account as a new-to-me message with the same subject, sender, send date, etc. as the original, almost as if I had copied the message from one inbox to another.

I cannot remember if it only worked for forwarded emails which attached the forwarded message as an attachment (Outlook does/did use to do this I think) or not.

At any rate, I'm looking in the current interface and I wasn't seeing it listed. Was this feature removed at some point over the years? Is it only an active menu choice for forwarded messages which have attached the forwarded message as an attachment?
