How to identify the real email address the email is comming from

We have a user getting emails that it seems not from Microsoft (to giver at least one example, this has happens with other know companies).

We went into Message Option and noticed that the "Return-Path" is not the same as the sender email, the "from" (see MESSAGE OPTION attached, we have changed real email names for obvious reasons)

Can EE give us some input on this matter?

(We use Outlook 2007)
Return-Path: <sabine460@raku-gaki.com>
