Default Attaching emails to an email

It is easy enough to attach Word documents and electronic images to an
email. But how can I attach to an email copies of emails already sent
without first pasting them into Word and making them Word documents? Others
have sent me attached emails with (I think) an ".eml" suffix. How do I make
them? I don't seem to be able to identify anything from the selected "store"
folder.

Hi Derek,

E-mail messages can be (saved as) *.eml files and then attached. They can
also be forwarded as an attachment from within Outlook Express. Right-click
on an e-mail header and choose Forward as an Attachment. This option is also
available from the Message menu for a highlighted message header.

emails are stored lumped together in dbx files in oe
either
rightclick the email in the folder select 'forward as attachment'
or
drag the chosen email to a folder/desktop and it will save with the .eml
extension
then add it as an ordinary attachment
