You will have to remove any links to remote content, and since that is usually buried in the message source (Ctrl+U), it might be useful to reply or forward in plain text format to expose the unwanted code. If your default format is HTML, hold Shift when replying or forwarding (or starting a new message) to change the format to plain text. You could also copy from the message source, just the content that is necessary, excluding remote links and scripts.
