Hi there,

This is an Outlook question, despite me mentioning Outlook Express below..

In Outlook Express, I can look at a message in raw format (including ALL
email headers, mime parts, etc) by right-clicking on the message in the
inbox, select "Properties", select "Details" tab, select "Message Source"
button. This will open a text window displaying the whole email in raw
format.

Can I do that with Outlook as well? Right-click, "Options" does not give me
the same possibilities like in Outlook Express.

But perhaps there is a plugin or makro I could use for that?

http://www.outlook-tips.net/howto/viewing_headers.htm - pocketknife peek is
the easiest program to use to view headers and source. See link at the end
of the headers page.

What you "see" in Outlook Express is not the whole E-mail in raw format -
you see the "internet headers" of the message.
This same information is available in Outlook by rt clicking the message -
select options and internet headers will be listed in bottom section.

You can see the headers and message source in one file if you click the
message source button.
