Thanks for the reference on that mailing list bug, and from there, the other one I had in mind was Bug 1008718. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/956618 Title: Nickname not over-riding names in email address Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: Confirmed Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: From what I have read in the support forum the nickname should take priority in the search for an email address in the to: field. It does not appear to work any more. Example: One friend's address is Mark<m...@yyyy.com>. The other is James<james.m...@xxxx.com>. Both are in my address book with Mark entered as the nickname of m...@yyyy.com and James as nickname for james.m...@xxxx.com. If I type james in the To: field I get james.mark as a first entry in the list of available addresses. If I type mark I get the same address again, when I would prefer the first optional address to be m...@yyyy.com Reason it is needed: I am trying to avoid sending emails meant for m...@yyyy.com to James.mark because I do not notice in time that I have defaulted to the first entry in the list of available addresses.
