I start typing "me".  I get a pull-down list that, with scrolling, has 7
entries in this order:
        my primary address, which has the nickname "me"
        Eva L, whose E-mail address begins "meshugene4eva"
        Eileen & Mel S., whose E-mail address begins "mesnid"
        Bruce S., whose E-mail address begins "metadc"
        my address at RoadRunner, which has the nickname
        H. Medved, whose E-mail address begins "hmedved"
                and whose nickname is "Medved"
        J. & A. Mednick, whose E-mail address begins "mediclick"
                and whose nickname is "Mednick"

I tried sorting the list in my address book by actual name, nickname,
and E-mail address.  The 7 entries above are not ordered according to
any of those sorts.  Perhaps, they are ordered according to when they
were created, something which I will not test.  I did determine that the
pull-down list is populated case-insensitive; that is, I get the same
results for "me", "Me", and "ME".
