How do I forward multiple emails together as one email?

I need to send several emails to someone. I can forward an email, but need to include several other emails within the body of the email, so that the recipient can see the whole thread. I have found how to put the additional emails in as attachments, but I really wanted to put them into the main text body.

As they are EML files Thunderbird will display the attachment inline in the body. I can not speak for other mail clients.

Thanks for the reply. Looking at the email I sent, they do indeed show both as attachments and are contained in the main body.

However, when writing the email, they did not appear, so this seems to happen as the email is sent. This prevents me controlling where they appear. is there a way of controlling where on the page they are placed?

To do what you appear to want to do, you must copy-and-paste the old message's content into your new message. Attachments don't have any particular order or position.

If you want to cite particular content, or refer to specific points then you have no real choice other than to copy-and-paste. It might be wise to attach the original message verbatim too, if there's any risk of things being misunderstood out of context.
