} I don't see a way to forward mail from the curses interface.

You use the [mail-flags] command, which defaults to M (shift-m).   It will
prompt you for flags to be passed to the mail command; type -f followed
by the list of messages you want to forward.

To automate it, use (for example)

    bind-macro F '[mail-flags]-f [getline]'

} I also am trying to figure out a print[list] function.  Again from
} the curses interface.

    bind-macro P '[line-mode]print [getline]'

You can accomplish almost anything by falling back to [line-mode].
A better choice for the print-list function might be

    bind-macro P '[line-mode]pipe [getstr] $pager\n'

Because the first one (using print) starts a separate pager for each
message, but the second one runs all the messages through the same pager.
In both cases you can just press return to print the current message.
