When I try to forward an email, the template appears with this kind of stuff (partial example below) pre-printed. I have to remove it before sending the email (to clean the email up). Is there a setting somewhere that I can change to stop this? Thanks for any help you can give.

This looks to be a default feature of yahoo mail. Currently some of the yahoo answered have said it is default or to hold CRTL while hitting the forward button.

I'm using Mozilla Thunderbird 24.6.0 email. I forgot to mention that. The first response did not solve my problem. Any more suggestions on how to get rid of the 20-30+ extra lines of routing and sender, etc. gibberish that Thunderbird adds ONLY when using the "forward" button?? Thanks!

Ah, a Thunderbird question. You landed onto the Firefox Support Forum and most contributors here only answer Firefox questions. I'll go ahead and move this into the Thunderbird queue so Thunderbird contributors can help you further. Guigs2: You should still be able to access it using the same link. Darn it, Ed. Beat me. (Guigs2: Please see my comment here)
