If you put company names into either Last Name or First Name, or split
between them, or you have a comma for any reason in any contact or group
name, you will have a problem when you send an email to that contact.


Lets say the name of the contact is "Pierce, Fenner" and the email address
is "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". Then any email you send that includes that
contact will actually get to the recipient, although the display name will
be "Fenner" , not "Pierce, Fenner. Then your mail server will try to send
another copy to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". (I mean your real ISP's domain name
there.) If there is such an address, it will actually get to that email
address. If there isn't anyone with that address, it will bounce back to you
from your ISP's Postmaster. You can check because your Sent Mail copy will
show the two recipients "Pierce" and "Fenner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>".



** If Entourage is ever made to allow company names to act as contact names
(as has been discussed here before), this error will have to guarded against
when dragging the contact to an email message. Either _only_ the email
address can display as the contact (as at present), or else the commas will
have to be removed in the message, or some other implementation for new
message window  recipients will have to be made, or the problem will happen
regularly.
