Summary: Adress book and filtering problem
Product: kmail
Version: 1.9.6
Platform: SuSE RPMs
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs kde org
ReportedBy: john_82 tiscali co uk
Version: 1.9.6 (using KDE 3.5.8)
Installed from: SuSE RPMs
OS: Linux
Emails often consist of a name and the actual email address enclosed in < >.
Sometimes the name part is changed but the email address is still the same.
If I try to add the new name complete with the same email address to my address
book it fails because the address book only seems to check against the part in
< >.
The filter on the other hand uses the entire thing name included so if set up
to root mail from a particular person to some folder and the name part changes
it doesn't go there.
eg J L Smith < jlsmith somewhere com> might be changed to
Jacob Smith < jlsmith somewhere com>
Address book says they are the same, filters say they are different.
I think that this would be cured by only checking on the < > part and allowing
different names against an email address in the address book. You no doubt will
feel differently but the ability to check that an email address is actually in
my address book is an extremely useful facility.Any other approach I can think
of will wreck that.
John
I suspect this all applies to all versions
