Can I restore the headings From and To instead of Correspondents?

Thunderbird now shows the heading of Correspondents rather than From. I would like to know who sent the email, like everyone else, and the word From directly does this. The word Correspondents really doesn't do it for me. Can this be set as an option instead of a permanent thing?

On an incoming message, "Correspondents" tells you what the "From" column would. I don't understand how it somehow fails you.

Anyhow, right-click on the label "Correspondents" and you'll get a drop down list where you can select the columns you want to appear. Down at the bottom of that list is a pair of buttons that allow you to apply your selection to other lists. But you'll have to carefully pick through which ones need a "From" and which ones need a "To", or maybe both.

I file messages together by context or topic, incoming and outgoing all together. "To" and "From" are not a good choice here as I don't need to see "From" on those messages I sent, nor "To" on incoming messages.

"Correspondents" solves this by intelligently showing me the "other" parties to a conversation.
