Good evening,
I doubt this is actually a balsa issue, but maybe someone else has seen
this and already solved it. I have a mostly KDE system, so my address
book is in ~/.kde4/share/apps/kabc/std.vcf. Most of the time, this
works just fine, and balsa correctly suggests names as I type in the
TO: field.
However, every now and then (no predictable pattern) I have one of two
problems. First, if I add an address with balsa's "Store Address..." I
have to manually fix std.vcf because the new entry had different line
endings from the rest of the file. (It's been a while since it
happened, so I don't remember which of the old or new entries are linux
or PC line endings.)
My new problem is that balsa seems to be picking up the FN: entry. I
use "last, first" as my default display, which is in the file as
"FN:last\, first" and starting recently, balsa has been showing the
display name as "last\\,first <em...@host>" and when I click or tab out
of the TO: field, it breaks it into two addresses "last" and "first
<em...@host>". I haven't updated balsa in a few months, so I assume
it's related to some change on the KDE side - although kaddressbook
looks like it also hasn't changed in over a month.
If anybody has any thought of how I might start troubleshooting this, I
would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks for any suggestions.
Jack
