Original email disappears on forwarding

Since my most recent update, when I forward or reply to a Mail email, the original email is deleted from my inbox. This means losing all attachments to the original message stream, unless I have saved them separately.

I'm using Mac Mail Version 16.0 (3696.120.41.1.10).


As you say, the Mail app groups messages together. That's fine. But until very recently, if I replied or forwarded a message, through Sent, the original message, with its attachments, remained in my Inbox.


I can do what you suggest but it doesn't help. I can see the original message, but not the original attachments. They are now purely listed as [filename.docx], but the contents are not openable.
