You can use following code to forward an email message downloaded from IMAP, of course you need to use SMTP for sending:

IMail original = GetFirstMessage();

ForwardBuilder forwardBuilder = original.Forward();
forwardBuilder.Html = "Tom, <br/><br/>please resolve this.";

MailBuilder builder = forwardBuilder.Forward(new MailBox("bob@example.org", "Bob"));
builder.To.Add(new MailBox("tom@example.org", "Tom"));

// You can add attachments to forwarded email:
//builder.AddAttachment("report.csv");

IMail forward = builder.Create();

using (Smtp smtp = new Smtp())
{
    smtp.Connect("smtp.example.org"); // or ConnectSSL
    smtp.UseBestLogin("user", "password");
    smtp.SendMessage(forward);
    smtp.Close();
}


static IMail GetFirstMessage()
{
    IMail email;
    using (Imap imap = new Imap())
    {
        imap.Connect("imap.example.com"); // or ConnectSSL if you want to use SSL
        imap.UseBestLogin("user", "password");
        List<long> uids = imap.GetAll();
        if (uids.Count == 0)
            throw new Exception("There are no messages");
        var eml = imap.GetMessageByUID(uids[0]); 
        email = new MailBuilder().CreateFromEml(eml);
        imap.Close();
    }
    return email;
}
