How to Find Full Email Headers

- Open (or right-click) the email in question.

- Apple Mail: Select "View", click "Message", and then select "All Headers"
- Excite: Select "View Full Headers"
- Gmail: Click "More (Three Dots at the Top-Right Corner of the Message)” and select "Show Original"
- Hotmail: Tap "View Message Source"
- Mozilla: Select "View" and click "Message Source"
- Opera: From the email body, right-click and select "View All Headers and Message"
- Outlook: Select "File" and click on "Properties"
