How can I customise Thunderbird message columns to show sender raw address (not display name) and the "Received for" email address that was used to reach me?
I find it increasingly important to be able to see a sender's actual email address rather than just display name, as they usually don't show a company name - which a domain always would. Is there a way to customise settings/write a script/tweak files to add raw email & domain name columns? When dealing with a number of people at the same company it is hard to order or glance through a list of emails to find them. I also know 2 people with the same name at different companies and it is impossible to distinguish!
Secondly, as a related column addition, since a number of email aliases reach me it would be useful to have a column to show the "Received..for" part of the message source which reveals the actual email used in the To/CC/BCC which led to me. Again can this be tweaked or scripted?
I have programming experience but have not made add-ons and would be open to a suggestion which involves creating a custom add-on if adding columns with custom values is possible that way.
Best Regards,
Drew

Yes absolutely, sfhowes!
You have provided a great answer very quickly. I am very grateful.
I have installed and am already getting benefits of that add-on.
I'm quite surprised this isn't built-in natively, so that search criteria and results lists could take advantage of that too. Hopefully one day it will be.
Many Thanks

Extended message headers can be searched from Edit/Find/Search Messages, or the folder context menu, by adding custom headers to the search criteria. So, you might be able to create a search on specific properties of a message.
The method of adding custom headers to searches is the same as the one described here for filters:
