Yes,   there   is.   Use   the    Forward   button,   instead   of   the
(More->Attachment-> Attach Message) selection.  Make sure that your forw
is setup to expand MIME in your ~/.mh_profile:

$ grep forw ~/.mh_profile
forw: -mime

Or remember to run (More->Format mail->Run  mhn now) before you hit send
each time you forward a message.

The difference is that when you use Forward, it will attach the message,
but without a name. If you attach the message as an attachment, it gives
the attachment a  name/filename, and apparently Gmail  thinks that means
that the message/rfc822 content should be ``downloaded'' instead of just
viewed in the client.
