How do I read email header info

[Chuck Moreland]

The title says it all.

I'm trying to varify the source of an email.

I'm using outlook '07 as email client.

You can READ the header info, but that won't necessarily let you verify it. It could have been forged, sent through some spam botnets that do trickery on it, through a bunch of open SMTP relays, etc etc etc.

Are you asking how to interpret what you're reading, or how to view it? I don't remember exactly how to do it in OE2k07, but I think you can right click on it (in the inbox, not where it displays the message) and go to Properties, and it should be in there somewhere.

I just tried it with 2003, right click on the message, choose options, on this screen I get the header info at the bottom.
