Viewing the source of emails

I am looking for a way to allow my OWA (Only) users whom are remote from the
office and without Outlook to view the email headers / source of email
messages that are sent to them.

It is very important to have this feature.  Can someone please point me in
the correct direction as I have not found any info what so ever in all the
documentation that I have stating that this is even possible?

Thank you

I don't believe it is possible...that functionality exists only in Outlook,
iirc...

Thank you...

Well I have tested it and that didn't work.

I was looking for an in/house method of doing this, perhaps some

registry setting that we left turned off.  I can't believe the

capability isn't there as a default.

I guess the programmers at M$ never thought someone out there in this

friendly world would ever dare to send a forged email message,

masquerading as another person.

Actually they did.  What they likely figured is that nobody would really
want their end users to look through miles of headers to figure out if every
one of the 700 + messages they received that day were legit and likely
assumed that most users wouldn't know the names of the legit servers anyway.

Instead, they made it more noticeable in the from line of the message header
by putting the users SMTP address next to the name if it did not originate
locally to the system.  So if you send via SMTP, you'll see it with the
<name>[smtp:address@here.com] format vs. friendly name you see in the GAL.

I'm interested in knowing a user population that looks through every header
before figuring something is legit vs. using something like PKI to ensure
the legitimacy of emails.  That's also possible with OWA 2003 FWIW.

Thoughts?

I got it working... thank you.

I was instructed to make the changes in the folder of:  C:\Program
Files\Exchsrvr\exchweb\6.5.6944.0

But in my exchange I have C:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\exchweb\6.5.6944.0 and a
folder called C:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\exchweb\6.5.7226.0

It seems that the folder "C:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\exchweb\6.5.7226.0" is
the active folder and was created after my SP update for exchange.
