Morphology

forwarding = forward (semi-transparent) = forward + ing

This sense is a metaphorical or extended use of 'forward' (to advance or promote), so the derivation is understandable but less literal than the 'send on' sense.

Etymology

Forwarding comes from the word forward, which means 'ahead' or 'to the front'. A helpful image is pushing a project forward so it moves ahead, which is why forwarding can mean helping the progress of something.
