I tend to do it the hard way by, right clicking a message and selecting properties, then, details, then, scanning down until I see the word "sender". i don't pay attention to any of the other stuff as, I can't read most of the gibberish the properties dialogue box comes up with. just put my cursor behind the e-mail address, hightlight it and copy and paste it into a new e-mail box. yeah, the hard way LOL. but, I like to think I'm clever <grin>.
