ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 No, in order to determine from where an email message originated you need to examine the complete email headers. In Outlook you do that by selecting View, Options, then copy the data from 'Internet Headers'. Other email clients have easier methods, like Thunderbird you just click CTRL-U.
