Arrow up or down to (group messages by conversation) and hit the enter key if it is checked. You can turn BCC field on within an open message and check All headers by just hitting the Enter Key. You may have to arrow up or down to find it.

It's outlook express and I'm running ie7, so whatever version goes along with that is what I have. This is annoying and takes up a little time that I could be doing other things, so could anybody shed some light on how to get things back to what they were, and for the record, how do you get the bcc field to show when you create and/or compose a new message. I've not had this field in quite some time and am wondering if it is available any longer, and if so, how does one find it? Thanks and have a blessed day.
