Pressing CTRL+F3 shows the message source, without any alterations or "enhancements" by OE. It even shows it in a fixed-width font by default. No more false hyperlinks, no more file://'s, and even no more having to change the font (great for beginners?)

I have also discovered that is you wan't to see a message before OE applies ugly url parsing and coloring .. press and hold down the mousebutton on the message you wan't to read.. OE only does parsing when the button is released - Unfortunatly .. you can't scroll the message without releasing the button. ###### From: "JRO" Newsgroups: alt.ascii-art References: <80vcl0$sj$1@news8.svr.pol.co.uk> <80vh08$eev$1@news.inet.tele.dk> Subject: Re: To Outlook Express (and Outlook?)
