Thanks: I'd also been trying to find a way to forward with attachments, and $forward_attachments helps as long as there's no HTML part.

But it still doesn't forward html parts, and setting honor_disposition doesn't change that. Is there a way to forward the same MIME structure as the original message, including html parts? Like what bounce does, except that it makes me the sender and gives me a chance to add a comment?
