I've never been able to find a way to view the source of an UNOPENED email
in Outlook 2000/2002 and still cannot in 2003. Is there a feature (as in
Outlook Express) that allows me to do this? It's very important to be able
to see the content of the message without actually opening the message with
so much junk mail going around these days.

thanks.

Milly, that allows me to see the headers. In OE I'd be able to hit a SOURCE
button but there isn't one in Outlook 2003 (or any other version of Outlook
other than Express). Looks like I'll be trying the tip in the post from
Diane. Thanks Diane!
 
No dice. Copied and pasted exactly...

here's a snippet of the exported .REG:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Options\Mail]
"SaveAllMIMENotJustHeaders"=dword:00000001

Anything look wrong there, Diane?

I upgraded from Office XP. That have anything to do with it?

Yes, POP account, too. NO exchange server.

I take that back. I realized I was trying it on message that had already
been downloaded. Messages that came in after the change I can view more in
the Header window.

Thanks!
