How do I see what time an email was sent to me rather than received time.

Rather than just today or yesterday.

How can I see what actual time a message was sent to me within Apple Mail in Yosemite.

Thanks.

Mac Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.2)

The message only shows the time received - I want to also see the time/date sent. We have had some emails that have been delayed and I want to know that they were delayed without looking at every long header of every email.

I was hoping there was a way of customising the message viewer to show that.

Thanks Barney,

I did know that, but I was hoping to be able to see within the main message viewer instead of just yesterday or today, a time when sent. Used to be able to see that in previous versions.

I have noticed that in 'all headers' it doesn't ALWAYS show times and can be quite hard to interpret.

Oh, you just want to see the time, not the actual time it was generated. That doesn't show in the message list. You have to view the message to see the full date/time information.

I don't think there is a way to turn it on in the list.
