Problem is that both can be expected behaviour. 1) the sender didn't know or fill in the real name, but I would like an answer to have it; likely in everyday communication 2) the mail was sent to an address that on purpose doesn't have a name assigned, like a role account, it may even be it's read and answered by different persons A solution IMHO is a quad-option asking the user whether to complete the name when answering such mail. Even better might be two alternates lists, with and without realname fill, but that somewhat sounds like overkill. Eike -- OpenPGP/GnuPG encrypted mail preferred in all private communication.
