behavior here with 1.5.13.

Subject: mutt: mime_forward does not work for attachments of type
text/rfc822-headers
Package: mutt
Version: 1.5.10-1
Severity: normal
If I try to forward an attachment of type text/rfc822-headers, mutt will
forward it in-line and with lots of headers deleted. This happens even if I
explicitly "set mime_forward".
It is thus currently impossible to forward "full headers" for spam reporting if
the only headers available are inside a text/rfc822-headers attachment.
(Workaround is to save the attachment to a file, then insert the file from the
text editor. Therefore the bug is "normal" and not "important".)

Hi
sorry for the late reply; such bounces are hard to come by (most have the
complete mail in them, and I don't know how to make an artificial sample).
I just got the odd one (which is also an odd one) today.
Please find a sample mbox attached.
Regards,
Ambrose
