In Umail, how do I display and send the full headers of an email message?

In the Umail web interface, to send the full headers of a message, first display the headers, and then insert them into the body of an email message.

Displaying full headers

To display full message headers:

  1. Click the mail message to display it in the message pane.

  2. In the top right corner of the message pane, click the down arrow next to "Reply", and then click Show original.

A new window will open with the headers at the top of the message.

Inserting headers into a message

To insert the headers into an email message:

  1. Select all the headers by clicking and dragging the cursor from the top left corner to the bottom right corner of the header text.

  2. Press Ctrl-c (in Windows) or Cmd-c (on a Mac) to copy the headers.

  3. Create a new email message, click in its main text window, and then press Ctrl-v (in Windows) or Cmd-v (on a Mac) to paste the headers.

Important: Many students are employed in some capacity by Indiana University, and many use email in the course of their employment, either to communicate with their co-workers and supervisors or to carry out their job responsibilities. Because Imail and Umail accounts are hosted by vendors external to IU, student employees may use these accounts to conduct university business only if they do not receive or transmit any sensitive data via these accounts. For more, see Student use of email for work-related purposes.
