When you forward a message from the admindb interface, it is "forwarded
as an attachment". Thus the entire message, including all its headers,
mime structure, etc., becomes the message/rfc822 contents of the
delivered "forwarded" message.

If you look at the contents of the message/rfc822 part, it should be
your original message with Content-Type" multipart/alternative and all
the original subparts, and it is this message that will be delivered
to the list upon approval.

Actually, a message/rfc822, not text/plain, message

Yes, it will.
