How can you see who email is from in Outlook Express?

Docano

In the From column, it has the name of the person that sent you the email, but it doesn't show the sender's actual email address. Is there a setting I can change to where it will show the sender's address rather than the name?

Thanks

Right click on the message go into properties and all shall be revealed.

Yea...but...but...is there a way to reveal it in column view?

Just for interest sake: Some time ago[2Years back] I discovered that if you create subfolders, for the INBOX and OUTBOX's the column showing the E-Mail address from the incoming mail, will change if you change the outgoing mail[send] column, causing you to loose sight of your original showing in the INBOX columns....You cannot see the IC mail name or address, but see your own. I reported this to MS, on which they acknowledge the "fault", but reminded me that it is not seen as a problem...Too much trouble to correct.
So in short, if you change column in outbox, it will effect your previously chosen column showing in INBOX, confusing the hell out of you, cause you normally don't change this at the same day....

Here is my suggestion to them at that time:

Microsoft

SUGGESTION:WIN XP-PRO[SP1]....Outlook Express 6 [SUBFOLDERS]

I would like to make the following suggestion to improve the workins of Outlook Express-6.

Could you design the system so that if a subfolder is created in the "INBOX" as well as in the "SEND ITEMS", the columns
you chose, does not change in the send items if it is changed in the inbox and vice versa.....ie, let the subfolder choices
behave in the same way as the main folders. As it works now it is quite irratating, because in the subfolders of the "INBOX"
you want to see "FROM"who the mail came, and at the same time you want to see "TO"whom it went in the "SEND ITEMS.

Thankyou

Yep, you confused me :P
