Message Source in Outlook

[Greg Wright]

How do I look at the complete message source in Outlook?
I'm using Office XP with Outlook 2002. I don't want to
open messages which come from unknown sources. If I could
open the message in source format, complete with all
header information, I could then determine if the message
was valid. However, I can see no way in Outlook of doing
this. In Outlook Express, there is a "View Message
Source", but not in Outlook. I cannot believe that a
company as smart as Microsoft would ever leave something
as simple as this out !!

Right click on the message in the folder, select Options. The source is
available in the bottom window.
