Re: Displaying actual email address not name
Thanks Barbara; interesting workaround but not quite industrial-strength enough for me; I need to see the 'real' address of *every message* in my database -- or at least all those that have been sent to a particular domain. That's a lot of messages, far more than can be shown in the recipient list of a reply message. Good sideways thinking though. Rick Quoting Barbara Needham [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Here is a sort of work around. It may not actually do what you want but by looking in two places it might help. In your browser window [not sure whether or not this works with find results]... select all the e-mails of which you want to see the real e- mail address. The tap and hold the reply button in the toolbar. You will see reply to sender, and reply to all. You should also see reply single message... choose that. [Note: this doesn't work if the reply-to is a mailing list or yahoo group]. You then should see the addresses in that fake new e- mail and can perhaps compare it to the list in the browser [or find?] window. Apple Mail has an option for showing complete addresses... probably powermail should??? -- Barbara Needham

The e-mail address of the sender is also there. Not a convenient method, but it works for me. I would guess that an Applescript could do the job. Len -- Leonard Morgenstern

For showing accounts, all you need to do is go to View/Options and check account. Remember view options are distinct for each folder. For showing original e-mail address it does show easily on each individual e-mail; but I believe the op wanted to see that address listed in the browser window, as a set. -- Barbara Needham
Re: Displaying actual email address not name
Len; If you look in the View Options for any given PM window, one of the things you can check there is Account. Assuming that each of your email accounts has a different account in PM, you can view them sorted by the Account column in the browser.

I click on Show Full Header under the view menu and plow through the long listing to find it. But the easiest way would be to create a own folder for each mail account and to install an individual incoming filter for each of it (of the type: send mails with TO-address [EMAIL PROTECTED] to the folder XYZ). The additional benefit of this is that you will named automatically as sender with your mail address of that specific account whenever you reply to a mail which went-in into the concerned account-folder.

This would defeat the purpose of all the filters I already have in PowerMail, to send to the different mailing lists and people. I don't want them divided by account. I actually don't really care what account it came from, and somehow [of course I forget how] I have PM set up so it sends from the correct account. Simplest as has been mentioned is to check account in view options.. remembering you may have to scroll to see it. All of which doesn't answer the op's question of seeing original e-mail address in a list of addresses. -- Barbara Needham
