I don't use doubtlook, but I know that somewhere in your options - let
me look, I have the program- oops, never configured it.
Anyway, look through your options and menus - somewhere, you get the
choice of viewing the msg. source - I think SC explains it somewhere on
their site, but the help file should also show you.
With my client, I just select the msg and hit ctrl-U - the source pops up.
Select all, copy, and paste into report window.
Easy...
