Adding phil@netscape.com to cc. Phil, is forward feature in for M6?
Rich P, what do you expect this to do? If it's not supposed to work, mark it invalid for now.

In my local build updated 5/18, it works. Did the original message send with MIME encoded? 8 bit headers are not suppoted yet.
Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED
** Checked with 5/23/99 Win32 build ** I tried this with Latin 1 message headers on the above build. It is working now and mail headers are sent correctly MIME-encoded. For Japanese, the situtation is slightly different. Although the quoted header is not displayed as Japanese, it is correctly MIME-encoded and thus when it is received it shows as Japanese OK. This reply/quoted header not showing correctly is a separate bug and should be filed as such. Marking it verified as Worksforme.
