Cannot view All Headers?

I am unable to view the source, or even select "All headers" from the View
menu of *any* email, past or present. The menu item is always greyed out.

I'm using V12.0.1606.

Apologies is I have not followed a certain protocol. I did a search for
anything like my problem but did not find anything.

Re: Cannot view All Headers?

Did you try Ctrl-F3?

Re: Cannot view All Headers?

View Headers in the current incarnation of WLM applies to:

Mail
- the additional fields CC and Bcc.
News
- Additional fields Follow-up, CC, Reply To, Distribution, and Keywords

Thanks. Ctrl+f3 does bring up the source.

On my vista installation WLM beta did show all of the mail headers (not just
any extra CCs etc) when I used the different message view.

Re: Cannot view All Headers?

You're welcome..
Dave deserves credit for Ctrl F3.
I can't recall the WLM beta 'headers' approach on my Vista unit...since I
mostly used XP Pro test unit for the the WLM beta.

Re: Cannot view All Headers?

Hi, Winston - and TimB.

The long way to get to the same place as Ctrl+F3 is:
File | Properties | Details | Message Source.

Or use Alt+Enter instead of the first two clicks.
