Not really that important to the discussion at this point. The way you
described in your message a minute before this one is the way I
understand it, but if I click "Redirect" in Evolution I show as the
sender and the original recipient shows in the "To" field. I suppose I
could change the recipient in the "To" field. Haven't actually sent the
message to test, so I don't know if Evolution will change the sender in
the meantime.

In other words, I would expect that if A sends a message to B, and B
redirects it to C, it should appear to C that A sent the message to C
(with, as you say, intermediary headers) and a reply by C will go to A.
The way it appears to me in my version of Evolution (3.10.4) is that the
redirect from B to C will just look like a forwarded message from B to C
without the forwarding indications (headers) in the body of the message.

Just an observation on my part. I'm not pushing for a change here as I
never use this feature anyway.
