Orginal format when forwarding

How do I keep the original format (HTML) when I forward an email. Currently
all of my emails (when in HTML) are forwarded in rich text.

Only when you *reply* is there an original format. Forwarding a message
means that you are writing a NEW message so there is no prior format to
replicate. If you don't want to use RTF (which is a bad idea when sending
to recipients outside your Exchange-Outlook organization), configure Outlook
to send new mails in HTML or plain-text format.

not true. If i send myself an email in plain text and forward that message,
the forward is in plain text. This is VERY annoying because my signature,
like so many other peoples', contains my company logo - but not if it is
converted to plain text!

correct, forwards use the format of the message you are forwarding, it
doesn't matter if you forward inline or as attachment. The only solution,
if you need to use the HTML signature, is too convert the message ot html
before hitting forward.
