Q:        Eliminating headers in AOL Email

 

Occasionally I receive an e-mail I would like to forward to someone else, but without the lengthy headers.  I am on AOL 4.0.  Can you advise how I can forward an e-mail with just the body of the message without the headers?

 

A:         Eliminating headers in AOL Email

 

If you forward the mail there is no way to edit the original message.
As to eliminating headers...........Here is one method:
I am going to presume that you know how to select (Highlight) text with your mouse. Open the email you want to forward. If it has headers do this. Select (Highlight) only the text you want to forward and then click on Reply. When your reply window opens, add the addresses you want to send it to and any message then click on Send Now. Whoever you send email to will appreciate this more than you realize.
