Reporter, do you want this option for sending the same message to the same
recipient again, unaltered?  Or do you want it to send to a new recipient, or
something else?  
And should this option be present for the Sent folder, or the Unsent Messages
(sort of like Outbox) folder, or both?

This option whould only send in exact, unaltered email to the original recipient's.
It whould only be available from the send items, since this is only to send what
has already been sent.

Thats how this differs from the edit as new option, this is an exact resend
without the option to modify or change recipient's.

This option is available in Eudora.
