I second this request. It's again about *inefficient* way TB
currently deals with MIME digests AND RFC/822 attached
messages. I've been writing about this *heaps* of times, but
nothing has changed so far.
What for your problem, it's because of AOL most likely:-( It's
AOL beloved feature to forward messages this way always,
*not* the other. Try asking your friends to change their e-mail
application, this might help a bit.
Note however, that TB isn't much better then AOL in this
aspect: you can configure it *on a per-account basis* to either
MIME-forward, *or* to do simple forwarding. It won't let you
decide which way you'd like to use against *this* particular
message, which I consider to be pretty outrageous behaviour.

Nope, but this has been *requested* before, and more then
once:-( --- to add the ability to "expand" the complicated MIME
structure into one window, like, for example, Pegasus does
when you Ctrl-Open the message.
