When you have set the mail to display miminal header it should be possible to hover over the name to get a email as tooltip instead of expanding the header just to view it. Patch coming up.
this patch touch 2 files, mailWidgets.xml and msgHdrOverlay.js . I used the patch maker to make the patch, however it doesn't look right, a lot of redundant + and - (ie. mirror). Not sure if it's the patch maker's problem or my intellect.

Er, ok, guess I don't even need to modify mailWidgets.xml . Just a one line (exclusing the brackets) patch

Fix the bug if email address is displayed when name isn't available. And found out my old editor is stuffed, using notepad instead.

Marking bug as a dup of 90368. This idea was already suggested. Making the full email address appear in the status bar on hover instead of a tooltip was thought to be a better solution since it parallels showing a url in the status bar when hovering over a web link. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 90368 ***
