Well, I didn't think of making this topic here, till one of the members asked me how to retrieve full email headers.

It's quite simple actually.

In Yahoo!
click on the Full Headers link on the right hand top corner of the message table. You will see all the headers.

In GMail
Click on the More Options link.
Then click on show original.

There you go!
Googlue!

Oh! You are welcome, snils! In fact it was you who sent a PM asking me how to retrieve headers smile.gif
I sent you a reply on PM first. Then thought others also might have similar doubts, so made a topic of that here!!

I would like to add for Outlook users (perhaps same for Outlook express):

The default setting is "show no header" so right click on the message and select the "options". A new window will open up and read the bottom box titled, "Internet Headers".

Good luck.

Here's one for Hotmail users:

In your email Inbox, click on "Options"
Make sure you're in the "Mail" section of Options
Click "Mail Display Settings"
Under 'Message Headers' select "Full"
Click "OK"

And you're done! smile.gif Open up any email you've recieved and you'll see all the headers.

    sign is and then replaces the '.' with 'DOT' so it is humanly readable, but not by
    the Bots. Also, it encodes the 'mailto' and the address used in the 'mailto' so it

    or Gmail because that darn Micro$oft Outlook program comes up if one accidently click the link.
