I learned some yrs ago on this forum that you can identify the e-mail address of the sender of an e-mail by hovering the cursor over the sender's name.
Also the url of a website of a link in the e-mail. This has been useful to know.
A few questions:
1) just noticed that 2 friends with aol.com have no such info when I do that.
Pretty sure that they wouldn't know how to "turn off" that feature so is that
universal w/ aol.com
2) seems that almost all yahoo.com e-mail users that I received mail from have the identifying info when I hover. However DW who also uses yahoo mail does not have such info revealed. Why not? If relevant, she uses an ipad
to look at e-mail.
3) slightly different topic.......at one time it was safe or relatively safe to open
e-mails if you didn't click on any of the links contained within. Still true (or was it ever)? Or can just opening an e-mail be a problem?
