I have written code that pulls down mail through Indy Pop3 control. I am
retrieving the message into a TiDMessage component, I then want to forward
the message to another person using the Indy SMTP control.

I know it sounds simple enough, I have broken the message up into individual
components and created a new message, I have problems creating a new message
which is MIME based.

Is there a much simpler way to do it - am I missing something, can anyone
suggest a better way or direct me to a working example.

Thanks in advance.

I had a similar problem when trying to forward email. I needed to save it on
disk, then forward it later.
This mail may have been dated, but the easiest way I got this to work is to
do a pop.RetrieveRaw, then write the message to disk via the
StringList.SaveToFile, then use the socket.WriteFile to send it to an SMTP
server. Unfortunately, SaveToFile / LoadFromFile mangle the message so MIME
does not work properly with it. I can send you the code if you like.
