I have a mailbox on yahoo and I would like to view some email original source like gmail's option, "show original mail".

Is there an option like that in yahoo? I couldn't find it.

That's more of an application use question than programming. However if Yahoo! don't provide a facility, you can fetch the mail from Yahoo! using POP3 and read the full mail in any email client that supports showing the original source, or code up a client/script to fetch it.

However POP3 access in Yahoo! is limited to paying customers.

If you want to view the full message headers, you can use Actions -> Full Header to see them.
