Nope, there exists no way to do so;-(( It's a major shortcoming IMO, I'm in a
habit of widely using both MIME-forwarding (actually, judging by RFCs, it's not
a proper term, and it's not necessarily forwarding: for example, Pegasus
allows one to *attach* any _message_ to the currently edited one in the same
fashion. The proper term should be "attach the message" and this action
should be somewhere in menus, NOT in the forward template) and MIME
digests.
To correct the current behaviour is a rather long-standing wishlist item, and i
really hope it will be addressed in the version 2.

Definitely. The option to forward message this way should be put into the
menus, since the deceision is made based on the current message, not based
on the current account (or even folder).
