Major Malfunction

To improve my spam filtering, I'd like to see the sender's full email
address *without* opening the e-mail.

I am using Outlook 2000 SR-1 (Build 9.0.0.3821). The "From" column will
display "Sender Name", but I'd like to see "(e-mail address removed)", or whatever it
is, so I can setup permanent delete filters for certain domains. The only
way I know how to see the full sender's address is to open the e-mail, then
click on the "from" in the header. This, however, is liable to trip any
imbedded code or cause a validation reply to be sent.

Can this info be seen and displayed without opening the message? I've been
looking for Outlook settings to make this possible, but I don't see any.
Using Webmail from some of my ISPs I do have this feature, but at home, I
prefer Outlook and would like to have this feature on my home system.
 
Have you tried right clicking on the item in the inbox and select options?
(Internet headers is in the bottom half of the dialog.)

I had not tried this previously. I just did and it does what I want.

Thank you!
