How can I view message source in Windows Live Hotmail?

The latest upgrade in Windows Hotmail has gone ahead and removed the View Message Source from the right-click context menu in the Inbox! I have always found that to be a valuable and critical tool in filtering out /previewing potentially risky e-mails without ever having to actually open them.

Why on earth would MS disarm their Hotmail account users in this day and age in the battle against scams/spams/phishing and all other sorts of nefarious exploits!?!?

How do I view the full headers of email in MSN Hotmail?

I like to explore how email gets from one place to another and sometimes make sure that it's really from who I think it's from, so I like to dig into the arcane Received-By: and other headers that are atop an email message I get on MSN Live/Hotmail. Problem is, that's not so easy. How do I view the "full headers" of an e-mail message in MSN Hotmail?

How do I organize my Hotmail folders?

I've been a hotmail user for over a decade, and want to remain so. Lately my emails have been auto-organizing in weird ways -- sometimes by size of the email, sometimes by attachments vs. no attachments, etc. I just want the email to stay organized by date both in my inbox as well as my files (most recent at the top), but I can't seem to find how to do that.
