<h3 class="section">8.4 Redistributing Your Mail</h3>
<p><a name="index-g_t_0040command_007bdist_007d-1083"></a><a name="index-MH-commands_002c-_0040command_007bdist_007d-1084"></a><a name="index-redistributing-1085"></a><a name="index-mh_002dredistribute-1086"></a><a name="index-M_002dd-1087"></a>
The command <kbd>M-d</kbd> (<code>mh-redistribute</code>) is similar in function
to forwarding mail, but it does not allow you to edit the message, nor
does it add your name to the `<samp><span class="samp">From:</span></samp>' header field. It appears to
the recipient as if the message had come from the original sender.
When you run this command, you are prompted for the recipients.
<p><a name="index-mh_002dedit_002dagain-1088"></a><a name="index-e-1089"></a>
For more information on redistributing messages, see
<samp><span class="command">dist</span></samp>(1). Also investigate the command <kbd>e</kbd>
(<code>mh-edit-again</code>) for another way to redistribute messages
(see <a href="Editing-Again.html#Editing-Again">Editing Again</a>).
<p><a name="index-g_t_0040command_007bsend_007d-1090"></a><a name="index-MH-commands_002c-_0040command_007bsend_007d-1091"></a><a name="index-mh_002dredist_002dfull_002dcontents_002dflag-1092"></a>
The option <code>mh-redist-full-contents-flag</code> must be turned on if
<samp><span class="command">dist</span></samp><a rel="footnote" href="#fn-1" name="fnd-1"><sup>1</sup></a> requires the whole letter for redistribution,
which is the case if <samp><span class="command">send</span></samp><a rel="footnote" href="#fn-2" name="fnd-2"><sup>2</sup></a> is compiled with the <span class="sc">berk</span> option (which many
people abhor). If you find that MH will not allow you to redistribute
a message that has been redistributed before, turn off this option.
