.SH DESCRIPTION
.B Forw
may be used to prepare a message containing other messages.
.B \-annotate
switch is given, each message being forwarded will
be annotated with the lines:
-
- Forwarded:\ date
- Forwarded:\ addrs
-
+.PP
+.RS 5
+.nf
+Forwarded:\ date
+Forwarded:\ addrs
+.fi
+.RE
+.PP
where each address list contains as many lines as required. This
annotation will be done only if the message is sent directly from
.BR forw .
The
.B \-file
.I msgfile
-switch specifies the message to be forwarded as an
+switch specifies the message to be forwarded as an
exact filename rather than as an
.B nmh
-folder and message number. It is
+folder and message number. It is
intended to be used by the
.B msh
interface to
-.BR nmh .
+.BR nmh .
This switch implies
.BR \-noannotate .
The forwarded message is simply
.BR \-mime ,
and
.B \-digest
-switches is bypassed, and the usual leading and trailing
-'Forwarded Message' delimiters are not added.
+switches is bypassed, and the usual leading and
+trailing 'Forwarded Message' delimiters are not added.
The same caveats apply to this option as to the
.B \-build
switch.
