Today I received a harassing email by someone claiming to be the IRS. If the
IRS wanted to get in contact with me they would call or mail me not spam me.
How can I forward the email to the authorities with full sources?

Select the message and then select Message menu --> Forward as Attachment.

Keep in mind that spam messages 99.9% of the time have forged header
information and are rarely traceable back to the sender.

Did not work. Clicking on the attachment does not display any source code.

While you have the attachment open you need to select Message --> Source
in order to view its source, just like any other mail message.

Oh never mind I'll just use good old fashioned copy and paste as its the
only way to get the job done. My goodness.
