Sender Name is a Firefox extension that shows the sender's & recipient's display names (and any address book attributes) in the thread pane.
Showing the display names and other attributes of senders has the following merits:
* Improves the visibility of the senders and recipients
- Names can be displayed in a unified format
- Names can be displayed even if no name is specified in the mail header
-- Expecially useful for mails from mobile phones because they often use human-unfriendly addresses and contain no name
* Improve the amount of information about senders and recipients
- Their companies, departments, and other attributes can be displayed
* Improve security (a little bit)
- May prevent phishing attacks by distinguishing unknown senders from known ones
