Subject: [PATCH] emacs: Add References header to forwarded messages
Date: Fri, 29 Mar 2019 13:01:09 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190329120109.3477-1-ekeberg@kth.se> (raw)
From: Örjan Ekeberg <ekeberg@kth.se>
Include the message-id of forwarded messages in the new message.
This ensures that the new (forwarding) message is linked to the
same thread as the message being forwarded.
