Hi Rod,
Another suggestion you might try
bring the mouse to the subject of the email
then toggle to the cursor with the minus key on the numpad, which is the top right key on the numpad now bring the cursor to the sender or which ever heading is important to you. Now you have a hot key for the subject and the sender by just toggling between mouse and cursor and pressing numpad 5. Of course, this will only work if you have no other need for your mouse and cursor key.
Stay well,
Manny

Manny,

Much thanks for the suggestion. I guess I was wondering whether I was missing something and there were hot keys for the various headings.

Cheers,

Rod

Hi Rod,
Here is what I do:
bring the mouse pointer to the top left
with numpad 1
then arrow down with numpad  8
until you find what you need.

Hi,

I'm using Thunderbird 24, the current version, and I was wondering if there is an easy way to view the message header fields when reading messages which I receive, not when I'm composing messages. What I found I can do is stay in browse mode in the message body, press Control-End, turn off browse mode, and then tab into the message header, and keep tabbing until I get a field which is labelled "fro"; this is the "From" field, and I can then tab through the subsequent fields which I need to examine.

Obviously, this is cumbersome, but it does work, although there is no easy way to get back to the message body except to shift-tab all the way back to the message body, and there is always a little uncertainty about whether you are still in the header or whether you're actually back to the message body.

If the anser is to write an app, any suggestions about the best approach would be great.

Thanks,

Rod Hutton
