Sending "eml" format to a non-Microsoft user defeats the purpose of
communication. There are ways to tell Mozilla to behave like a normal
Internet mail program, but since I don't use it I don't know the
specific incantation. (it is the "attachment" option right by the
"inline" option, IIRC)

I think that "inline" option is there so that you can quote and edit
the message you are forwarding.

Those things aren't malicious on my system, they're just plain
annoying. It would also be annoying if someone sent me a sample of
their /dev/random (the usefulness of the two is identical).
