Thanks for the nudge in the right direction.  I'll take a look at that
regex Showing the sender address in Outlook won't fly.  It's a good idea,
but users would hate it and it doesn't solve the issue for mobile users
(where most of our users get tricked into a quick reply).

How much would you need for a 100 hour or so sponsorship of this?  I doubt
our charity can come up with the funds, but I'd try!!
