Sorry, the flags should have another comment, so I'll toggle them back and forth once more to get that right.

It does not appear to work any more. Example: One friend's address is Mark<[email protected]>. The other is James<[email protected]>. Both are in my address book with Mark entered as the nickname of [email protected] and James as nickname for [email protected]. If I type james in the To: field I get james.mark as a first entry in the list of available addresses. If I type mark I get the same address again, when I would prefer the first optional address to be [email protected] Reason it is needed: I am trying to avoid sending emails meant for [email protected] to James.mark because I do not notice in time that I have defaulted to the first entry in the list of available addresses.
