It depends on the mail program that was used to do the forwarding or
copy/pasting. The answer is typically "no", but in those cases where it's yes,
the headers are obvious and displayed as part of the message that you recieve.
If you don't see them, they're not there.

I have two questions.
a) Is it possible to retrieve the full headers on an email that was forwarded? For example, if someone forwards me an email that he/she received, I know that I can get the full header for the person who sent me the email directly, but can I get the header for the person whose email is being forwarded? (hope the question makes sense)
b) Can I get the full header to an email if that email was copied and pasted and sent to me as a new message. In other words, it wasn't sent to me as an attachement, nor was it forwarded. It was copied and pasted. I can see the person email address, date, etc...but is it possible to get the headers from that?

Thank you!

The information is somewhat correct, however when viewing the Internet headers in Outlook, this information is NOT the full Internet headers, needed to report spam. The example you show in Outlook is insufficient to report spam. Apparently it is impossible to get Microsoft to explain how to do this, unless you use a patch-in hack code for the Outlook registry. They obviously have not built that into the Outlook system, like they have for express.

Microsoft couldn't tell me how to access a header in an Outlook message (their instructions didn't make sense :-) but you did - thank you very much :-)
