Microsoft Outlook 2003 View Headers

Start Outlook 2003. Right-click the message heading in the folder you are looking at (for example, Inbox) and choose 'Options'. Start Outlook 2003 and double click the message to get it in its own window. Go to the 'View' menu and select 'Options.' Then: Right click in the 'Internet Headers' box and choose 'Select All.' To actually view the mail headers of a message, the steps are naturally different for each mail client. For Outlook 2010 (and possibly 2007) see: How do I view full headers in Outlook 2010? In previous versions: right-click on the message in the message list: Click on Options, and you should see a dialog box similar to this. Select a folder from the list of folders in the Folder Options section and then choose the option Download headers only. It is possible to have different setting for each folder in an account, so, for example, you could set Outlook to download only headers.

    There was no FROM column showing unless I went to the VIEW box and clicked on that -- but that ONLY showed FROMs and nothing else. You suggested going to MAIL, but I couldn't find that. However, you mentioned something about COMPACT, so I clicked on CHANGE VIEW, and there was COMPACT -- clicked on that and my FROM column was back. Thanks so much!!

    Hey, I have an odd one. In Outlook Express 6 (I know my user is using ancient software), the columns are added, however the text that should be there is blank. However the To and From fields are populated in the email itself, what gives? Recently moved user from POP3 to IMAP.
