Additional Note:
It also seems to preserve the date of the original email, instead
of giving it a new date. Yes, 'Date:' is correct but the
'From' line without a colon contains the date of the original
email, which happens to be what tagging by date looks at. Once
again, IMHO, if the edited mail is sent, this date should be
changed as well.
In short, my preference would be that if you send a message,
regarless of its origin, it should be treated as a new message, as
though composed in the usual manner.
