Any way to add column for Message-ID to Inbox/Sent Items folders?

[Alan]

Hello,

Is there any way, please, to add a column showing the Message-ID to
the Inbox or Sent Items folders?

My boss often receives return receipts from external recipients which
show the sender's address and the Message ID, but not the subject.
Outlook doesn't correlate them so he has to try and manually do it.
Opening each message and looking in its Options takes too long.

We're using Exchange 2000 and Outlook 2000 and 2003. Maybe Exchange
2003 does a better job of understanding notifications.

Thanks,

- Alan.

Well, Outlook doesn't store Message-Id seperately, even if Exchange does,
and Exchange 2003 won't change anything with what you're seeing, it isn't
your server that is creating the receipts. It's the external server.
