You have a couple of choices here.

1) if you're not editing the original message, using the "ok" mechanism
is usually the best.

2) Use a MUA that allows for a REDIRECT (which is fundamentally
different than a simple "forward").  Outlook/Outlook Express do not have
this.  Eudora does, but puts an annoying "by way of" in the name field.
Pegasus works great *if* you don't edit the message - if you do edit the
message, it generates new headers (meaning it looks like it will come
from you).  Of course, both pine & elm have the "bounce" command, which
does redirects properly too.
