Description Christian Schaarschmidt 2005-06-22 23:17:09 UTC

Version:           Unbekannt (using KDE 3.4.0, Debian Package 4:3.4.0-0pre4 (3.1))
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-12)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.4.22

Example:

addressbook entry
Firstname: FIRST
Lastname:  LAST
e-mail:    FIRST.LAST@foo.com

when I start typing e.g. FIR
autocomplete will list in the drop down box:
           FIRST.LAST@foo.com (LAST, FIRST)

using this list-entry results in an error because kmail sends out mails to three recipients
FIRST.LAST@foo.com , LAST@mydomain.com , FIRST@mydomain.com

It is good that the lookup works on e-mail address as well as name, but IMHO
autocomplete should in both cases stick to the "normal" format
"FIRST, LAST" <FIRST.LAST@foo.com>

introduce KMailCompletion

this patch requires deactivating autocompletion, because lookup is done on
givenName, familyName, nickName, email but fullEmail is returned from
s_completion.allMatches, which is (most likely) not what has been typed.
Basic idea:
store some keywords for each addressee (fullEmail); let KCompletion find the
keyword and then lookup corresponding addressee.
Advantage:
- no more "first.name@org (First Name)"; Bug 107945
- lookup any part; Bug 77342
- email-addr will only be listed once; Bug 109798
