I want to re-send a message exactly as it was originally (it failed to reach its target). Can I do this in Thunderbird?

I send messages that require a response to be sent to the entire Cc. list. If the message fails to reach the primary target addressee (cause unknown, and nothing to do with Mozilla TB) I still have a copy and can of course Fwd it. But then the Reply All facility doesn't work for my correspondent receiving the forwarded copy. In MS Outlook it is possible to re-send a message in exactly the same condition as the original. Why not in Thunderbird? Or am I missing something?
