Workaround on displaying/headers I use my web browser (Safari, Mac OSX 10.2.6) to go into webmail on my ISP and look in my mailbox. I then "select all" messages. Then I unselect the ones I want to keep and click on delete. No spam ever gets downloaded, and I can view the messages from within the server mailbox and see the headers. The message is still on the server, not on my machine, so no attachments get downloaded. If your ISP doesn't have its own webmail (mine uses Squirrelmail), Pandamail works well.
