Message filter with "forward" action sends empty emails. Forward setting is set
to "inline".

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
It is happenning at least on Windows using IMAP to connect to Microsoft Exchange
5.0.
Actual Results:  
empty email messages are sent to email mentioned in the action.

Expected Results:  
original email is supposed to be sent.
Confirming with version 1.0+ (20050630) / linux. 
This does not seem to be IMAP specific. I can reproduce with POP as well. 

When forwarding is set to "Inline", both the message body and subject of the
forwarded message are blank. If forwarding is set to "As attachment", it seems
to work properly.

I might have to make it just forward as attachment, if it's difficult to fix the
inline problem.

Is it possible to just redirect the message as-is to a new address?
redirect isn't implemented yet.

I recreated the forward inline problem. I'll investigate. I also had a problem
with forwarding pop3 mail, which was surprising since I thought IMAP would be
the problem.
