Forwarding emails within an email reply

[Edward Diener]

Let us say I have emails xx, yy, and zz using TB 78.6.0. In my reply to
the sender of email xx, I would like to somehow forward the contents of
the yy and zz messages. Is this possible and, if so, how would I do this
? I am trying to avoid sending three separate email replies to the
sender of email xx.

Copy & paste the text of each?

If you want the address list, etc, open a Forward message for each, and
copy the contents of 2 of them into the other.

Attach yy and zz to the reply to xx by drag and drop from the Threads Pane, dropping them to the right of the addressing area, like a regular file attachment.

Save yy and zz. They will be saved as .eml files. In the reply to xx
attach these files. Perhaps mention that you're attaching them.

I often do this when replying or forwarding.

And Steve's method is quicker way of doing the same thing.

You can save the three emails as eml files and then you can attach these eml files in your reply.  That is one way to do.

To save the emails as eml files, just right-click on each of them one by one and then choose Save As ..  The default will be an eml file extension.

Thank you everyone ! I did notice that I could save an email as an .eml
file, but I failed to notice that I could attach an .eml file itself to
an email.

I do this often, and always use John's second method.  Works well for me, and IMHO much less clunky than attachments as suggested by Steve, Dave and Good Guy.
