I simply want to have a column that displays the full email address of the
sender.
I get alot of email, and I don't want to have to rely on auto preview or
reading pane. There is no replacement for being able to see in a column that
you can sort with.

3rd party apps, code, custom forms anything would help

Thanks,
cb

Why don't you just use Field Chooser to add that field to your view?

I've tried a bunch of the fields. Please tell me which field. Please note
that I am getting my mail from an Exchange server and I think that scenario
may present different field options.

Thanks,

Ah, but there is no such field. Outlook views can only show the sender's display name, which may or may not include the sender's email address.

So you are saying that I am at the end of the road?
No gadgets, scripts workarounds?
And would anybody know why Microsoft chose not to add this functionality?
It completely defies reason.

Probably because most people recognize display names over email addresses?
I mean, I'd recognize Inigo Montoya before (E-Mail Removed). But
that's not speaking with any knowledge of why, just guessing.

Well, that and they probably didn't want to have to break up the From: field
in the RFC2822 header since a) More code to write (and which could then
also break) and b) More data to store, since you'd have to store the
original header, the broken apart Display name and the broken apart email
address.

f.h.

If you wanted to write your own VBA solution, it would involve processing each incoming item, getting the SenderEmailAddress, and copying it to a field -- the standard BillingInformation field would be a good choice.

I can't tell you which field because you were never clear on the view or the
field you wanted to display. If you are trying to configure the "From"
field, you can't. That is set by the sender, not the recipient.

Good point. That does make sense for folks with a wide range of home user
type contacts.
For me it's the opposite. Almost all of my email comes from our clients and
associates whose domain name is a quick way to determine what company they
work for.
Case in point is a new employee from one of our clients sent me an email
which I almost overlooked as spam because I did not recognise his name.

Thanks all for your replys.

One way to deal with clients might be to set up a search folder for each domain name or to color code them with categories using rules.
