Which is the more reliable way to forward emails: inline or as an
attachment?


For raw text InLine is clearly better.

For email in MIME encoding either method seems to work equally well.

For email with JPG attachments either method appears to work fine.


But For fwd of email in HTML it makes a difference depending on what
client is sending and what client is receiving.
When pictures are embedded in HTML a number of strange things will
happen. Sometimes you may see a bunch
of broken-pictures then the actual pictures.  Sometimes your recipient
will say "it would be better with the pictures".

As a <snob> user of only SeaMonkey I can't identify with users of
"Outlook whatever" ;-)

For raw text there is no difference.  It is still raw text.
And in SM at least, a raw text attachment can always be viewed inline.
Other things should be sent as attachments.
If sent as an attachment, in has a separate MIME code, which tells the receiving program how to display it.

BTW, nothing snob about using a better program ;)
