My objections to resend are all about the problems of obscuring who the
message is actually from, and who the original message was actually to.
I agree that resending a message when you are the original author is a
useful and non-dangerous thing.  However this feels more like a one-shot
template kind of action to me, than a resend action.  

If I wrote a message to A and B, and then C asks for a copy of it, the
aounds like a job for "forward" rather than "resend".
