Default Harvesting Email Addresses

When I receive an email with 200 recipient email addresses in the "To"
field, I often contact the sender telling them to please either set up
an email distribution list or put the names in the "BCC" field so that
spammers will not harvest them. However, I just tried to harvest the
email addresses in Outlook 2000, but I was unable to get the email
addresses to copy -- just the recipient's names. Am I correct to be
concerned that the visible addresses are easy to harvest? I can double
click on each name and see the email address, but I cannot figure out a
way to extract them en masse.
