Can I set Correspondents column format to legacy format?

I just received version 128.5.0esr of Thunderbird, and I see that that the format of the Correspondents column has changed to include the email address along with the name. I don't like that format because it looks too cluttered. If I really want to see the actual email address, I can simply open the email.

I would like to revert back to the legacy column format of just displaying the name. Is there a way to do that?

Thanks.
