No, because the macro tries to match "ABC Co." in your address book
and it isn't there. (Because it isn't a valid address.)

It surely is undesired behaviour. But most of all by ABC, they ought
to use a from address as:
"ABC Co., Shanghai" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
I suppose TB could be patched to make TB translate the address
correctly, but ......
