Recipient name does not appear in listing of a sent email

[Guest]

I have a question about email display properties. Using Word 2007.

I create an email message and send it to John Doe. When I click on the "Sent
Items" folder and view the table list of sent emails, the recipient's name
"John Doe" appears on the top line of the email I have just sent.

Then I drag and drop the email into another folder I have created, such as
"For Follow Up." Now, I click on the "For Follow Up" folder and look in the
table list for the email I have just sent. The recipient's name "John Doe" no
longer appears on the top line of the email. Instead, my own name does. This
makes it difficult to find the message later. Is there any way to have the
recipient's name show up instead of mine?

Just found the solution to this. Posting here in the event others have the
same issue:

In the target folder, “For Follow Up,†right click the horizontal bar that
stretches across the top of the Messaging Pane which displays the table list
of emails. Choose “Field Chooser.†Find the “To†field and drag and drop it
to the horizontal bar. (Or, depending on where you right clicked the bar,
select “Customize Current View†then “Fieldsâ€. Then select the field and
click “Add†and then “OK.â€)
