This is probably quite basic, so just answer to me via email please. 
I just started using MH...

I would like, when forwarding, to have format header lines understood
in my forwcomps file just as they are in my replcomps file.  When
replying repl fills in header information (Subject:, In-reply-to:,
etc.) from the message being read in.  I would like forw to do this,
but when I try to include format statements in my forwcomps they just
get copied in as plain text.  (I would like, for example, forw to fill
in the Subject: line much like gnu emacs does in and perhaps to add a
"forwarded-from:" header or something.

Can this be done?

Thanks for any help.

Fred
