I've searched for this answer for awhile and have yet to find the
solution. In the mean time, I view the message parts ('v'), and tag
each part and attachement I want to forward ('t'), press ';' to affect
all the tagged parts, and finally initiate forwarding the mail ('f').
It's a work-around for a nicely automated process that I have yet to
find, but it works.
