When you're *reading* mail? I just tried it and all it offered me was
the cut, copy, paste menu. If I Show Kludges, then I can do what you
say. But I'm trying to avoid using Show Kludges. In general they are
messy and much too much information for day to day viewing. I am
trying to save *some* screen real estate. :)
Plus if you just want to quickly scan the recipient list, there
currently is *no* convenient way.

I don't know about that. The example I gave only had three addresses,
but I routinely get mail with anywhere between 10-20 addressees.
Beyond a certain number the current way is not the most convenient.
As I said, I don't know of a mailer that currently handles this any
better than TB, but it is a feature that I would like to see in some
form.

Not fully, see above.

Maybe you still won't, but maybe now my meaning is a little clearer.
