Both of the above are interesting ideas. The latter might be less
confusing for recipients since it'll just automate what several of you
already do instead of using `Bcc:`. It's also closer to what MailMate
can already do. In fact, I think it might be possible to create a bundle
command which offered some kind of “Send and Forward” command, but
to really work well then it would probably also require me to add a bit
of functionality. I'll give it some thought.
