This is a symptom of there being two address book entries for the
email address. Although you and I know that the message is part of a
mass mail to the addresses in a specific AB group, the %AB macro
hasn't got a clue about that and initiates a fresh search from the top
of the address book looking for the address in the message it is
currently processing. If it finds a match before it gets to your
specific group, it will use the record it finds first.

Make sure that there are no spurious entries for people. A good tip
for doing that is to sort the address book listing by email address.
