In any group, including the nndoc-group (in which there are
divided parts), mark articles that you want to forward by typing
the `#' key, and then type `C-c C-f' (or `S o m').  Any part
that looks as follows can be deleted after composing a message
buffer.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
<#mml type=message/rfc822>

[...]

<#/mml>
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

You can also delete even the `<#multipart type=digest>' tag at
the beginning of a message body, and the `<#/multipart>' tag at
the end.

In addition, I recommend using the `C-c C-m P' (or `M-x
mml-preview') command before sending a message in order to check
whether it will be encoded properly.  If given a prefix argument,
it shows an encoded message in the raw form.
