Tips
- Includes the original message with sender, date, subject, and recipients.
- Use -a/--attach to add file attachments. Can be specified multiple times.
- With --html, the forwarded block uses Gmail's gmail_quote CSS classes and preserves HTML formatting. Use fragment tags (
- With --html, inline images in the forwarded message (cid: references) will appear broken. Externally hosted images are unaffected.
