I haven't verified your findings but you can always work around this by
using a rule first to change the sensitivity level of the message and define
your forward rule as a second rule.

How do you change the sensitivity of a message? There doesn't seem to be an
option for it within the Rules utility. And when trying to change the
sensitivity manually, the option is greyed out.
