The program's online help was useless.

Google turns up many ways of getting at the headers, none of which
correspond to any program menus I am able to browse through.

(I'm looking for stuff like Received lines, for a message that's already
been received.)

Any help from an expert who knows Outlook 2003?

Thanks.

Right Click on message and select Options
I did try that, because it was just about the first thing presented to
me when I was searching. But I'm sufficiently suspicious of myself
that I'm now wondering if I missed something.
Back to you tomorrow...
Update: Evidently I did /not/ try that. I looked for the "Internet
Headers" button, but evidently missed it entirely in my haste.

The button is there. But...

The specific message I wanted the headers on has /no/ Internet Headers.
This is because the message was generated by the company's Exchange
server, and sent to an address within the company's Exchange.

Other messages sent and received that went /outside/ the company /do/
have headers.

But I now know the primary thing I wanted to find out: Who it was that
generated the "user unknown" bounce-message. And that turns out to be
the company's own Exchange server.

Thanks for suggesting the Internet Header button, thus forcing me to
take a second look at the system again.
