Forward an Email Message in AOL
To forward an email from AOL:
- Open the message you want to forward in AOL.
- Click Forward.
- Enter the email addresses of the people you want to forward the message to in the Send To: field.
- Optionally, add personal comments to the forward in the message's body.
- Click Send Now.
Edit the Message Before You Forward It
If you want more control over the contents of the forward (by removing some superfluous text from the message you forward, for example), you can use or indeed slightly mis-use the Reply function:
- Open the message you want to forward.
- Highlight either the complete message text or the part you want to forward.
- Click Reply.
- Delete the original sender's email address from the Send To: field.
- Type the email addresses of the people you want to forward the message to under Send To: instead.
- Edit the message as you see fit.
- Since the standard reply header does not contain who the original message was sent to, you can add this information if it is necessary ("In a message to somebody@example.com dated...").
- Click Send Now.
