Well, supposing someone just has their name showing and I want to see exactly where the message came from, in windows you can go in to properties and see things like that. It seems to me, I accidentally did it once with apple mail, but now can't figure out how to do it on purpose. LOL! This is also how I've found out where a message was sent to. I'm on a group that was recently bombarded with a hacked email and the person who fixed the problem was talking about going into the properties of the message to get information. I can't figure out how to do that on my Imac though. Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not get bent out of shape. tracyduffy@xxxxxxxxx On Aug 23, 2011, at 7:59 AM, David Hilbert Poehlman wrote: > what kind of properties of an email message are you wanting? > > for a file folder or anything in the finder, try command-i > > On Aug 23, 2011, at 7:36 AM, Frank Ventura wrote: > > I have been able to do this with COMMAND I.
