GMail Tips: Forward Conversation Thread in Order

Sometimes people using GMail want to be able to forward a complete conversation thread to someone else, but in order of oldest post first. The menu item placement for that is not intuitive unfortunately. This is what you do:
  1. Click on the conversation (it will take you to the view of the conversation)
  2. Go to the "More" drop-down menu at the top and select "Forward All"
  3. Compose your forwarded message as you like.
That is it. It would be more orthogonal if the "Forward All" was also placed in the message context menu like "Reply All" is.
