If you want to edit the message and Cc the original recipents, then 
rmail-reply, adding the extra recipients to the To or Cc would be more 
appropriate. If you don't want to Cc the original recipients, then 
forward may be more appropriate, possibly with a Reply-To line that 
includes the original recipents and sender (perhaps that is a new 
function that could be provided).

Resend should be limited to non-edited messages only - if the message is 
edited, then it comes from you, not the original sender.
