To be honest, this looks like a bug rather than a feature. At least I was so surprized to read this that I even checked it myself -- and you're correct of course :-/ RK> Mahogany also seems to have trouble locating a matching item if RK> it isn't the <last name> or something - I don't recall what it liked to RK> look for. It looks for name, last name and email but by default it matches the string "foo" as "foo*", i.e. it will only find addresses starting with "foo", not containing "foo". If you want the latter, just type (literally) "*foo" before pressing Enter. RK> I really like the way the old Netscape Mail (4.x) worked, but the IMAP RK> support in it isn't very good. If Mahogany can allow me to be RK> cross-platform, provide good IMAP support, and make creating the "To:" RK> list seamless like Netscape 4.x, I'll be a happy man. RK> RK> Any thoughts/comments? As I said, I like the idea. Please open a bug at our bug tracker and I'll try to implement it one of these days.
