Hi, I'd like to alter the way the ContactManager work so that it could be able to save contact which don't have an alias but for which the #name has been modified: For some of my contacts, I'd like to be able to change the #name without adding an alias (such as rename [EMAIL PROTECTED] to "Dad Home" and [EMAIL PROTECTED] to "Dad Work") in order to make the Inbox List much easier to read.
The problem is that the contact manager is not able to handle alias-less contacts and hence any modification to a Person during the run of Sup is never saved for unaliased contacts (I actually patched my sup to allow fullname modification before understanding that sup will never save these changes :p). Another idea would be to force all displays to use aliases instead of real names when displaying emails. This is probably simple to implement because there is no need to rework on the Contact Manager, but i still think that "full name" (this full name is used in TO: headers) and "alias" (this alias is only used internally) should be different : I might want to have an alias name "annoyingcolleague" and still have "John Doe" displayed when sending him an email... Maybe a mix of these two ideas : allow fullname aliasing and present all "internal" emails list in the following priority order: alias, aliased fullname, fullname from the real email. What do you think ? Cheers, -- Pierre Baillet <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
