"bouncing" messages

Does anyone know how to "bounce" a message, in the mutt sense of the
term where the message is send unaltered to a new recipient, in
notmuch/emacs?  I can't find any way to do it with message-mode.  I
think this was very useful feature in mutt, and it would be great if we
could add a command to notmuch-show to do the same thing.  Any
suggestions?

Well, ok, mutt adds "Resent-*" headers to the bounced message, so there
it's not unaltered.

Great, thanks so much for the suggestion, Peter.  That's easy enough.

Kudos to you Peter, that will help me a lot too.

It would be great if this became a key to make this easier. In mutt,
that key is 'b', which prompts you who you should send the message
to. That key is already bound to showing the body in notmuch, but I'm
sure there are other options.

I'm pretty sure, we can get a nice keybinding that invokes message mode's
"message-resend" function or something similar. The only disadvantag is
that it asks for the mail address in the minibuffer, not using mail
tab-completion mechansisms.

That's not so tragic, especially considering the nice integration it
provides.  But that said, it must be possible to get bbdb message
completion in the minibuffer as well, right?  Has anyone looked into
that?

Carl just dropped that binding, so now we can reuse 'b' to message bouncing.

Good call.  That would get my vote.  or 'B'.

I was just about to say the same thing. I'm all for 'b' for bouncing, (I
think I first used that in pine long, long ago...)

... and anyone still interested can check out

and bikeshed it further. (I think the XXX comment can just be dropped
but what about the extra magic in minibuffer keymaps...)?
