You can attach an email by selecting
userid/Appdata/Local/Microsoft/Windows Mail/Local Folders/Inbox
as the attach source folder, but identifying the particular email
you want to attach is tricky since the file names aren't very
helpful, the date modified is the only remotely useful thing to
select the email.

Wouldn't the "forward" function combined with cut and paste
do what you want?
