 Agent (and even Free Agent) has an option to display any chosen subset 
 of the message headers in the message pane along with the body. I have 
 mine set up to display Newsgroups: and Followup-To: - it's a feature I 
 wouldn't like to be without. Having the information in another box, 
 which you don't normally look at, is not effective.

 Mail to the addresses given in the headers is no longer being 
 read. To mail me, substitute "clara.co.uk" for "freeuk.com".
