[MlMt] replying and including attachment from source message

[Eric Sharakan]

Changing the subject prefix and copying/pasting addresses are both 
doable, but the message will still not be marked as a reply, i.e. it 
won't have the proper in-reply-to header like so:

```
In-Reply-To: 
<CAD3ZqUWR96S9A6VtTZpXGNxmBae7UoszGXoDSE1ZUOQDowHa-Q at mail.gmail.com>
```

This would prevent the message from being treated as part of the same 
thread.

If we're talking about a workaround, I'd prefer one where I could use 
reply, and then somehow manually copy the message attachment(s) from the 
original to the reply, but I don't know if that's possible either.

So I'm requesting more direct support for this feature.  IIRC, Mail.app 
has a menu item to allow you to include attachments from the original 
into the reply.  That would be enough for me.

Thanks.
