How can I find out exactly where an email has come from?

I am using Outlook 2007 (Enterprise edition)

I would like to know how to see where an email has come from. In other
words where it originated, where it has "traveled" to before I received it.
Can this be done in Outlook or is there a tracking program for outlook users?

Email me direct at [email protected] with your answer.

We don't do email support here. However, posting your email address in
public newsgroups and fora will guarantee you lots of other, unwanted mail.

Outlook 2007 changed the interface and this advice won't work. MS Help is no
help at ll. I have the same problem. Any more ideas???

It's only slightly different (and slightly harder to explain).

Open message
In the Options section of the ribbon, click the icon in the lower right hand
corner (when you hover over it, you should get a large tool tip saying
Message Options with an image of the options dialog you're probably familiar
with).

Thanks. I'd forgotten about that little icon. Personally, the jury's still
out on whether the new interface helps people who really knew their way
around the old contorted interface. It's just a new contortion to learn.

Then right-click the message header line in the folder list and choose
Options.
