Add option to display raw email address in the Thunderbird From field

[ronks]

In my Thunderbird email window, if the sender field is of the form
John Doe <jdoe@example.com>
then the From field appears in lists (Inbox, etc.) simply as John Doe.

It would be a useful option to display the bracketed part as well.
I get daily spam of the form (I'm making this one up)
Microsoft <abc789@att.com>
which is obviously spoofed from reading the address.
It would save time and I think enhance security if I could view that in a column without opening the email.

I understand there is a "Full Address Column" add-on for this, but it is unofficial; the need seems great enough to offer this functionality in a official version.

@ronks if I'm understanding correctly, there may be a similar idea already posted here to Connect: new column for e-mail-address of sender 

If this aligns with your request, we can merge the threads (and combine the kudos) so the conversation stay focused in one space. Just let me know 😃
