** Description changed:
Binary package hint: thunderbird
- Cannot map to "Name" field for primary Address Book view. "Name" appears
- to be derived from the 1st half of "email-address". Overriding the fact
- that First & Last Name of the extract.
+ When importing contacts into thunderbird's address book, if the record
+ has a First Name and a Last Name, these do net automatically get
+ concatenated in Display Name (something which thunderbird usually does).
- I.e. Imported address book does not show First + Last name -address book
- view. First+Last name is not an optional column (potential bug).
- Instead a column #1 is called 'Name'. Similarly if you try to edit
- contact with no "Name." You will see the First+Last name already exists.
+ Steps to reproduce:
+ 1) Tools > Import
+ 2) Select CSV File
+ 3) Mapping tool shows up, select/align fields
+ 4) Import
- Scenario: Imported contact from Gmail (CSV format). Enabled (checked);
- First, Last, Email,2ndEmail & phone.
+ What happens:
+ All contact names are the user portion of the email address. Example for
[email protected], bsmith is the display name used, even though "Bob" is the
first name and "Smith" is the last name.
- Canonical Case re-opened due to case #11066
+ Expected:
+ If the import tool sees a First Name and Last Name and no display name, it
should offer to fill in the Display Name automatically.
