Is there a keyboard (or other) shortcut to view the source text of
a message? Going through PropertiesDetailsMessage Source... is a bit of a cat and mouse chase to click it all. A simple keyboard shortcut would be nice.... LFS |

I have been told CTRL F3 only works with the preview pane turned on Larry,
not sure if this is true for all systems... but you can add a preview pane button to the toolbar using right click customize so it is still a quicker option even if you don't regularly use preview, and it's not dangerous with HTML like it used to be so there's no reason not to use it.

CTRL F3 only works with the message open, in any pane Is it possible to get it to open the message source full-screen? I've tried resizing (not full-screening) the window then closing it but it doesn't remember the size. The window always opens in something just smaller than a quarter of the screen. -- Bob http://www.kanyak.com |

I have been told CTRL F3 only works with the preview pane turned on Larry, That kinda defeats the point then, if I can already see the message in the preview pane. I was looking for some way to inspect emails without using the preview pane, and without being limited to plain text only. ... and it's not dangerous with HTML like it used to be so there's no reason not to use it. There are some messages I want to view in HTML so I would like to keep that option, yet if I open an email that has an image which is referenced from the web, the fact that I requested the image lets them know I opened the email. Viewing the source lets me see the message without any sort of call back to the originators... Oh well... Thanks for the replies! LFS |

Use MVP Steve Cochran's OETool to examine the source code. It's a one
button click with the Views bar enabled. Plus, did I mention that it's free? http://www.oehelp.com/OETool/Default.aspx -- Jim Pickering, MVP, Outlook Express https://mvp.support.microsoft.com/pr...8-1171988A62D6 Please deliver feedback to the newsgroup, so that others can be helped.
