Hi all.
I've just noticed that the from field and the to fields are the same on this
new list. There is no specific senders address available in the from field.
Although the name of the sender is disclosed, you can't retrieve the
sender's address as easily as  was done on Yahoo, should you wish to contact
him or her off-list. You can get a hold of it, though, by hitting alt 1
twice, which will put you to the left within the from field. You can then
hit Shift plus the end key to select the entire field, and copy it to the
clipboard. When you paste from the clipboard into an edit window, you will
have to remove the extraneous, access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx; on behalf of, as
well as a couple of left brackets, which will leave you with the sender's
address. Many people don't include quoted material in the body of their
emails, so this might be the only way of getting the sender's email address.
