un-nesting forwarded messages in Outlook

When I receive forwarded messages, sometimes the message content appears in the body of the email and sometimes the forwarded message appears as a .msg attachment. Why?

Sometimes these messages are interesting or amusing and I want to forward them to somebody else, but I hate contributing to the nested message issue, opening successive .msg attachments like peeling an onion until you finally get to the actual message.

I can't just copy and paste the message into a new message because I lose all of the formating and graphics when I do that.

Is there a solution?
