  I'm having trouble getting mush to forward mail.. Here're my attempts:

  :bind-macro f '[linemode]mail -f . [getline]'
  :bind-macro F '[linemode]mail -ef . [getline]'

  For the first macro, mush insists on adding the headers
  "Resent-From", etc to the header..  What I would prefer is changing
  the "From:" header to my address instead, and quote the original
  message including the headers.  I believe this is how nn does it..

  The second macro, same problem as above, PLUS mush adds the line
  [--forwarded message from *original sender*--] to the message..  Well,
  as far as I am concern, it should say [--forwarded message from
  it1@ra.msstate.edu---], and then the quoted text with header.

  Is what I'm trying to do possible, without mucking with the source?
  Thanks in advance..

  BTW, I'm using mush 7.2.0 on a Sun 4.
