SUMMARY
=======

The following command returns a reference number to a new message that is a copy
of the message in "originalMessage":

     msmail(createForward, originalMessage) => messageRef

"originalMessage" is a reference to a selected message obtained by making a call
to the msmail function using a parameter that returns a message reference, such
as getMessageListField.

Before sending the copy of the message, the message must be addressed with the
addRecipients call. Any enclosure or enclosures of the original message will be
included with the new message. They can be removed in Mail version 3.00 only
with removeEnclosure.

To pre-pend text, retrieve the current body with getBody, and replace it with
addBody:

  put msmail(getmessage, messageType, messageID) in messageRef
  put msmail(getBody, messageRef) into oldBody
  put "This forwarded message matches your interests" into newBod
  put msmail(createForward, messageRef) into newMessRef
  put msmail(disposeMessage, messageRef)
  put msmail(addBody, newMessRef, newBod& return &oldBody)
