How to view an email header

Updated:

Viewing the header information differs from client to client. Below are instructions for some of the most commonly-used clients and ISPs. All of these instructions assume that:

  • Your email client is open.
  • You have a copy of the email.

Please note that these instructions were accurate at the time of publication (July, 2019) and minor changes may have been introduced in later mail client versions.

  • If you have deleted the email then you may need to restore it from the trash before you can view the headers.
  • If you forward the email it will affect the header, so you have to get the header from the original email you received.
