Another tip for using Outlook Express is to go to your tools menu using alt
T, and then arrowing down to the option that says "add sender to address
book." Then you will have the E-mail for that person any time you may need it.
Also, someone's suggestion of using shift, insert, r is good for replying
directly to senders too.  But note that you have to be an open message for
this to work.  You can't just hit tab from inside the message list and read
the message as I often do.  You actually have to hit enter on a message to
open it before the shift, insert, r command will work.

HTH,

It's been a while since I used Outlook Express, but I remember that
pressing
tab or shift-tab would eventually take you through the header fields of
From, sent, to, CC, Subject, etc.  How long it takes depends on whether
there are other links in the message.



Also, in Outlook, pressing alt-1 will read you the from line, and holding
down alt and pressing 1 twice rapidly will put you on the from line where
you can read it at leisure.



The point being, however you manage to read the from line in your e-mail
client and with whatever assistive technology you use, doing this will
help
you find the address of the individual sending the message to the list.
If
you can't find the right combination to do this, then a quick message to
the
list to say that you want to have a discussion about the off-topic thread
and inviting them to contact you directly with your e-mail address in the
body of the message would work as well.



I by no means claim to have all the answers, but just a willingness to
find
solutions to keep this list active and purposeful.
