David,
You're not making this 100% clear. You say that Lotus can only forward, not
redirect, but then you say that there's no "To" or "Subject" headers. ?????
Any forward I've ever seen has the original Subject preceded by "FW:" or
{Fwd]" or some such thing, and has a "To" header of at least the email
address and probably display name too. What it doesn't have is the original
FROM header - it has the forwarder's name and address as the From. Are you
hoping to change the From to the original sender's, or are you just
concerned about getting your name as well as your email address into the
"To"? I don't get it yet. And dropping the FW from the subject is very easy.
As Allen says, it's not easy to change the headers or the source of a
message. I've "tricked" it a few times, although sometimes I think I had to
make a new message with the desired headers and the same content, then
delete the original. It looks just like whatever you want it to. But I'm
sorry I'm still not clear exactly what you want here. A simple Before/After
example would help.
