What's wrong with Forward As -> Attachment? This way you'll

basically forward the original message intact.
The problem with that is the attachment may contain a virus binary
(pdf, .doc etc). If instead you copy the entire content (with
headers as I advised Rick to do) and paste as a quotation the
virus binary (if any) can't be executed. A virus signature may
still be picked up by a scanner, but it would be harmless.
I see. Here's where the "Delete/Detach Attachment" may come in
handy. Either make a copy or operate on the original (depends on
whether one intends to keep the original intact for some future
purpose), delete the unwanted attachments, then Forward As
Attachment. When forwarding the headers as body content they may
get unnecessary mangled by automatic formatting the UA does for body
content, so the point is to avoid that.
