    No kidding?

     

    Wasn't the point of the OP to raise the issue that the "how" of getting to the headers needs to be addressed Instead of some pedestrian stating the obvious?

     

    Just because the rank & file may not have a need does not mean that the ability to view, copy, paste, or forward headers intact is not of significant use for troubleshooting, debug, and legal purposes.

    Jim Hdk answered the question that was asked and the OP marked his answer helpful. We are not mind readers. If the OP wanted more info all he had to do was ask.

    If it is important to you, AltaMail, which I use, has a Show Source method that displays the entire message as text, including all the headers.
