Manual, section 2.5:
Forwarding can be done by including the original
message in the new message's body (surrounded by
indicating lines) or including it as a MIME attachment,
depending on the value of the $mime_forward variable.
Decoding of attachments, like in the pager, can be
controlled by the $forward_decode and
$mime_forward_decode variables, respectively. The
desired forwarding format may depend on the content,
therefore $mime_forward is a quadoption which, for
example, can be set to ``ask-no''.
The inclusion of headers is controlled by the current
setting of the $weed variable, unless mime_forward is
set.
I use:
set forw_decode
set mime_forward=ask-yes

View attachments, select the interesting one, press the "forward" key.
Or select multiple interesting ones, and tag-forward.
