E-Mail address in From field

G

Guest

Hi,

This is a major virus & spam issue with Outlook.

I'm using Outlook xp.
I'd like to display the e-mail address of the sender in
the "From" field.
Atm Outlook displays only the name that the sender has
included.

For example, the sender could send an e-mail containing
details such as:
John Howard <[email protected]>

The problem with Outlook is that you only see "John
Howard" in the "From" field.
How do I display the e-mail address of the sender as well?
So the "From" field would look like:
John Howard <[email protected]>

I really think this can cut down on the amount of spam &
virus e-mails opened in the first place.


Regards,
Gavin

Which version of Outlook? This "bug" was changed in Outlook 2003 - you can
see the full address. I'mnot sure it's going to educe the amount of virus
messages that are opened - the virus writers do a pretty good job of using
real addresses.
