Can you do the above w/o having to go to the mail server first and checking
for legit email? I searched this group and MS knowledgebase, but found
nothing. One of you smart guys here I know will have an answer. TIA....

Sure. If your ISP has a webmail feature, it will give you just what you
want.

Thanks for the quick response, Hal. Since I use Yahoo mail for everything
( and it gets everything, spam, etc, etc) and a separate email account for
the VIP stuff, I don't think Yahoo has a web mail site to check first,
unless you may know something that I do not. Appreciate your help...

Kindly start only one thread per issue, thanks.

That feature is not built into Windows Mail.
If your mail provider offers webmail access, you can preview the headers
there, or you can do the same at http://mail2web.com.

Thanks for the info. I tried one thread but Vista told me I wasn't 'signed
on' although I was. After clicking a couple of times and getting the same
error message, it let me on but by then I had the extra thread. Sorry...
