not the full header. Please help? Thanks,Marcel

there is.

In that area it should show the message content as well. What was written? A
buyer wrote me a threatning email on Ebay. I sent them the header and they
explained that it was incomplete. When I take a FULL HEADER from aol it shows
all the same information as the outlook header PLUS it shows the content. Can
you please help. Thanks, marcel

That's full source. Outlook doesn't do the full source. You need to copy and
paste the header and then the message body to make the source. There is a
reg key for outlook 2003, but it doesn't work if the message is already
downloaded.

I hit forward and paste the header into the top of the message when I need
to report something like that. I've never had anyone complain that they
needed the "full source" as long as they get the message body and header.

I got a similar email saying "You've got my $500 but I haven't gotten my
item." It has you go to a website that, THANK GOD for Symantec stopping me
from going to the site, has a BAD website that puts BAD things on your
computer.
I know this isn't answering your question about headers but I strongly
suggest you run an antivirus scan on your computer immediately.

To get the full source you need to combine the full headers with the
message body source. There is a tool (Outlook plugin) that can copy the
full source into the clipboard; http://www.olspamcop.org/
