Summary: Added contact does not show up in composer
Product: kmail
Version: 1.13.2
Platform: unspecified
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Version: 1.13.2 (using 4.4.2 (KDE 4.4.2), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler: cc
OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.32-22-generic
I have a contact that only uses his email address, [email protected], without
specifying his name. As I want to choose this contact by name, I added him to
my address book using "right click -> Add to Address Book". The right-click was
on his email address in the "From" header of an email he sent. I got a choice
in which address book to store, I chose "Personal Contacts", which was the only
choice. I then right-clicked and chose "Open in address book". I filled out his
full name, and clicked Ok.
When composing a new message I would expect this address book entry to show up
when I start typing his name. However, this didn't happen. Only when I started
typing his email address did a nameless contact show up. Clicking the
"Select..." button also doesn't show his name, just his email address.
Expected behaviour: the contact is used with the same information I just
entered.
Observed behaviour: the contact is not used. I restarted KMail, but that didn't
help. When clicking on "Select..." in the composer window, I got the "Select
Recipient" window. This window gives me the choice of the following address
books:
- Default Address Book
- Distribution Lists
- Recent Addresses
- Selected Recipients
However, neither of these are the "Personal Contacts" that was my only choice
earlier.
To be 100% sure the contact was correctly added and edited, I right-clicked on
his email address in an email he sent, and selected "Open in Address Book". His
information is then shown as I typed it, including his full name.
