Outlook 2002
Right-click the message without opening it, then click "Options" from the drop-down menu.
A box called "Message Options" pops up.
Near the bottom of the box you'll see a text area titled "Internet headers".
Highlight the contents, then right-click. You can copy the headers and paste them into an email message or another application.
Outlook 2000
Right click on the message without opening it.
Select Options, then Full Headers.
The information can then be copied and pasted elsewhere for reporting abuse.
Outlook 98
Open the message and select View, then Options from the drop-down menus.
Near the bottom of the screen you'll see a section titled INTERNET HEADERS.
You can copy the headers and paste them into an email elsewhere to get them to the proper people.
Outlook 97
Microsoft Outlook 97 may require an update called the Internet Mail Enhancement Patch in order to display the email headers. After applying the patch, you should be able to view the headers by selecting the message, then going to the File menu and selecting Properties.
Outlook Express 4 and 5 for Windows
First method:
There's an even easier solution to expanding Microsoft's Outlook Express headers so that you can copy and paste it to another window. You need to be viewing the message in its own window or in a preview pane, then:
Right click on the message and select Properties.
Choose the Details tab and select the Message Source Button.
Select All (CTRL + A) and Copy (CTRL + C).
Close the Message Source window and the Properties window.
Select New Mail and position your cursor in the body of the email.
Paste (CTRL + V) the copied information.
Send the email to the abuse department or WHOA ISA.
Thanks to Andrew Kuebler for this:
Second method:
Here's a tip to simplify the process of getting full headers when using Outlook Express 5 and Windows 98 (don't know about other versions of OE)
Instead of selecting the message, right-clicking properties, clicking details, then message source, simply select the message and press Ctrl-F3. Then press Ctrl-A followed by Ctrl-C. (Ctrl-F3 takes care of all the steps necessary to get to the full header. Ctrl-A selects all the text and Ctrl-C copies it to the clipboard.)
Outlook Express 6 for Windows
To find the Internet headers in Microsoft Outlook Express 6:
Select the email and go to: "File"
Select: "Properties"; Choose the "Details" tab
Left click at top of header to highlight; scroll down to end; once highlighted, right click & hit "copy"
Close the "Details" window
Select "New" Mail and using right click "paste" the header info into the body of email
Send the email to the ISP where the SPAM originated |
