For Thunderbird there is the EMail Address Crawler extension
(<https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/9995/>), but
there doesn't appear to be anything similar for SeaMonkey. :-(
As a workaround, you could temporarily install Thunderbird,
install the Crawler extension and let it do its thing in her Sent
folder, and then uninstall the extension and Thunderbird. If you do
that, I would recommend using TB2 rather than TB3. Some of the
reviews of the extension indicate that it doesn't work with (at least)
some versions of TB3, and for a temporary installation you don't need
that added hassle/uncertainty.
