Enclosing Another Message: ~m and ~M

If you are sending mail from within mail command mode, you can enclose the contents of any message sent to you by using `~m' or `~M' commands. Typing `~m' alone will enclose the contents of the current message, typing `~m 12' will enclose the contents of message #12 and so on.

The `~m' uses retained and ignored lists when enclosing headers, the `~M' encloses all header fields (see section Controlling header display).

In both cases, the contents of indentprefix mail variable is prepended to each line enclosed.
