Random but what I always wonder is: what’s the point of forwarding?
Are we assuming they’re attaching the original email’s source so that the headers can be used to determine the source? Without that, the only thing useful I can think of would be any links in the email body.
Asking because I’ve owned an email address or two that got leaked in data dumps so I go crazy tracking down the sending server’s owner, any companies they’re pretending to be, any domain registrars, etc. and a lot of that requires analyzing the headers.

IT can look up the original (including all headers) based on the forwarded content. It’s on the same mail server.
Oh that’s right! Wow!! Really feeling dumb for that one now.
Ah, yeah, forward as attachement of course.
