Where is the view-header option in config menu?

First, a hint...

If you can see/find something in the Configuration screen use the Where
(W) command to search for a string, just as you can in a message or index
screen.

In particular doing a "W header" takes you straight to the option called
"enable-full-header-cmd".  (Then typing a "?" or "^G" displays help about
this feature.)

Having turned on this option you can then use the now-available "H"
command when viewing a message (or in the Index screen).

Cheers,

Are you talking about the enable-full header-cmd or actually the
viewer-hdrs?  the viewer-hdrs is located at the bottom of the feature list
but befor the the saved-msg-name-rule etc... defaults.

My apologies for any confusion...

I was assuming the enquirer was asking about how to "view headers" and
hence was pointing them to the "enable-full-header-cmd" (which enables the
"H" command to do this).

I justify this assumption on the ground that: a)  this question is asked
far more frequently than "how do I alter the set of headers the viewer
displays by default"; and b) most people asking questions seem to assume
others are adept in mind-reading (as do I, I confess, from time to time) 
so a judicious application of Occam's Razor is often called for. :-)

If the original question was indeed "how do I alter the set of headers the
viewer displays by default" then the "viewer-hdrs" variable is indeed what
is needed (and, unfortunately, won't show up by doing a "W header").

Cheers,
