This plugin https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/addon/full-address-column/ previously allowed to show the true sender address (things like craphead@abc190crap888.de) as a column in the email table.

This was an easy and effective way to get an early indication about phishing and spam mails (if not yet detected automatically).

With version 115, this plugin is not working.

Is the plugin maybe not needed. Is there a config trick in Thunderbird to see this full address column?

Uhh, found

https://github.com/lkosson/full-address-column/issues/14 and https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D179632 and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1817682

so there is hope for the world. (Though it is really weird that an email client is not able to show the sender's email address by default :-/)
