I'm having the same problem - i just need to copy senders address quite often. Everytime i need to display the source or click 'Reply' to copy e-mail address - it's REALLY annoying! I suggest two more options:
 - display also e-mail address when viewing a message, normal or preview (better make it configurable: name / address / name + address)
 - add additional option to context menu, something like 'Copy e-mail address' which will copy e-mail address into clipboard (something similar to firefox's e-mail address context menu)

I really need to resolve this somehow or i will go crazy :( Michael, do you really never need to copy e-mail address?
