This e-mail had for legal reasons to be sent within a certain timescale. Four months later after chasing payment from the client he announced he had sent an e-mail (correct address used) which we have never received. He then forwarded it to my e-mail address which arrived immediately. The e-mail looks suspiciously odd. Part of it has no delivery address bar, another part is totally indented. Due to it being forwarded on to me I can only see where the last message originated from and when. When what I actually need to know is when and if it actually had been sent to the original recipient or not. Is there any way of doing this?

Its very easy to edit an email before forwarding it to you. So I can't find a way to certify its origin, date or contents.
