In my old Outlook Express I could right-click on an unknown sender in the Inbox and click "Propertiies" which contained information on the sender, message origin and routing to help screen unwanted or phishing emails before I opened it. As far as I can tell Thunderbird (v.24.30) does not have this useful feature.
