Hi Pete,

You're right, I sent my test (instead of just judging by what's
displayed in the compose window) and the result did not look the same as
it did in the compose window; the received message (by party C) looked
how I expected and had the extra "Resent-From" and "Resent-To" headers,
as well as all the headers showing the route from A to B and B to C.

So I spoke somewhat out of turn, but hopefully added to the
understanding of the feature for any who were not clear ... which,
apparently, included me. :)
