The getmessagesource issue seems rather unusual.  Clearly it is a
problem for some users.  I have just checked all 5 of my Hotmail
accounts and View Message Source is not a problem for any of them.  If
it were a generic problem with this set of Hotmail changes we all
should be affected.

It is clearly not the intent of MS to remove the function - hopefully
they will quickly diagnose the problem for the accounts that are
experiencing the problem.
