When replying to an email Thunderbird does not include any header information
from the original email in the quoted text. Often, it is very helpful to be able
to see the distribution of the original email, particularly when adding other
addressees to the reply. This should be an optional setting in Preferences.
Ideally, one would be able to set a default choice to include or not include
original header info in replies in the Thunderbird Preferences and then have an
option in the Mail Compose Window of reply messages to override the default.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Reply to any email.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
No header information regarding the distribution of the original email was
included in the quoted text in the reply.

Expected Results:  
Allow an option to add the header information or at least the distribution list
from the original email to the quoted text in the reply.

Indeed it does need duping. I'll duly dupe it to bug 218258. Note that the
product should be "Thunderbird" if raising bugs about Thunderbird. "Mail/news"
is the product for Mozilla Application Suite mail & news issues (which
definitely does support this functionality!)
