If View | Headers is set to Normal but forwarding emails still send the header info, What to try next to stop it?

When I forward any email it adds the header information to the top of the email to be forwarded. According to other posts if I set View | Headers | Normal they will not be added. It is not working for me. I tried setting to View | Headers |All and then back to Normal again. No change. Using Thunderbird version 38.3.0 on Windows 10. I can manually select and delete the header info but that is a pain. The only other option is to forward as an attachment which doesn't add the header info but would prefer not to use this method. Any suggestions? Thank-you.

It's the little 5 lines. I have many people that want to be part of the forwarded emails but complain about the forwarding info. The 5 lines personally doesn't bother me. I miss understood believing the forwarding info, the 5 lines would be hidden if View | Headers was set to Normal. I'll have to select and delete before forwarding or just not copy certain individuals in on the forwarded emails. Thank-you for your help Zenos.

Just how much is being included?

Generally "All" reveals all the routing information, spam status etc. "Normal" limits it to sender, recipient, subject date and so on, and it would be normal to include this in a forwarded message so the recipient can understand the context.

e.g. "All":

Or does yours behave differently?

Are you objecting to those last 5 little lines? You can always select and delete them. But why pretend the message isn't a forward?

Maybe "Edit As New" would suit your needs better.
