Dear Bob,

mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] said to TBUDL:

Because you told it to!

This is a MIME forward aka Alternative forwarding. In this mode, TB
deliberately attaches a complete copy of the original email. This is
also the way AOL users forward messages. TB's difference is that it
attaches the copied email to a normal forward of the message. This is
less explainable. I can understand an overview of the text in the
covering message for the forward, but a complete content copy plus
images plus attachments? Very odd.

Of course, if you're not using MIME forwarding yourself, then you got
the original message *from* an AOL user and merely formatted what
you'd received. ;-)
