            Bug ID: 4230
           Summary: "Forward as attachment" creates inline attachment
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: Claws Mail
           Version: GIT
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P3
         Component: Other
          Assignee: users at lists.claws-mail.org
          Reporter: bugreporter at riseup.net

Today I tried to forward a message using the function "Forward as attachment".
My mail service provider's server returned a message that it was not delivered
because of:

<**hidden**@**hidden*>: host 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1] said: 550 5.7.1 id=**hidden**
-
    Rejected by next-hop MTA on relaying, from MTA(smtp:**hidden**): 550
    5.7.1 This message was recognized as spam by ********* infrastructure and
    is not delivered to the final recipient (in reply to end of DATA command)

Then I tried saving manually the message I wanted to fowrard in a txt file and
attaching it. Then sending was successful.

Comparing the source of the two messages I noticed that in the first case,
right after my signature the message continues with:

--***hidden***
Content-Type: message/rfc822
Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary
Content-Disposition: inline

and in the second case:

--***hidden***
Content-Type: text/plain
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=message.txt

I suppose there are some rules which consider the first case spammy.


In case this is not a bug - please at least consider adding an option for
fowrading with Content-Disposition: attachment.


Tested in version 3.17.3git194
