 Hi, I get at least one email a night pertaining to be from BT. If you hover the arrow over the addy you will see who sent it. I use BT internet and BT yahoo mail, so I  have to be on the ball with these senders.  Dolly

I thought Addy meant Address — the URL (Uniform Resource Locator) or in this case the email address.

I stand corrected if that is the case. Just goes to show not to use confusing short names.

Hi, wilcoxon, if you hover your cursor over the name of the person/group who sent the email (Before you open it) then the actual sender will show, I always do this with dodgy looking emails.
Hope that clarifies it for you.

Regards, Frank.
