How can I view/sort by email address not be the sender's name

These days people often send emails from different devices and sometimes their display name is different on each. When I receive an email from them it may have their display name, or if this has not been set on say their phone I just see their email address. But when I try to search or sort it does not look at the underlying email address just the display name and so it appears like some of the emails are missing. Is there any way to view messages by the underlying email address and not their display name or what has been saved to my address book.

Thank you - Marie

This add-on lets you display the senders' or recipients' email addresses as a column in the Threads pane (message list):

How to install

Right-click a column button to select which columns are displayed, and click a column button to sort the list by that column.
