Chosen solution

When you reply to or forward a message it usually opens in the message editing window where you can do what you want with the original message.

Perhaps you need to use "forward inline" if you are not seeing the original message when you forward. Try the right-click pop-up menu for this option, or go to Tools|Options to set the default behaviour.

What is the geek requirement about using your keyboard.

Seriously I am not just offended by that comment. I am incensed that anyone would even make such a statement.

The words puerile and vapid are all I can think of.
