I posted recently about how to view Internet Mail in Outlook 2007, and I didn’t want to leave out all of the people who have Office 2003.

This trick is handy if you want to see how a piece of email came to you, the exact servers that did the sending and receiving, along with their IP addresses, and what address it was sent to.

To get all of this great information, you just have to read through the Internet headers of the message. To do this in Microsoft Outlook 2003:

1. Double click the message so that it opens in its own window.

2. Then, in the toolbar, click on View > options.

3. You will be greeted with the “Message Options” dialog. There is a section near the bottom of the window titled “Internet Headers”. The section is highlighted in Red in the picture below.
