Description Georg Oechsler 2005-12-05 12:41:27 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.1)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

Once and again I get emails forwarded from a forum-software. Users can post messages into the forum without giving an email address, so the automatically 
generated email contains only the name of the sender, but no email.
The resulting header field looks e.g. like this:

From: Katja <>

Unfortunately "Katja" is not shown in the header of the mail shown in the messageviewer (except viewing "all headers").

Ouch, this seems to be a duplicate of this bug:

http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97460

Closed - although it is almost one year ago that 97460 was filed...

Is this now a duplicate or is it resolved as WORKSFORME ?

It should be a duplicate.

Let´s see if I can mark it as such

Comment 5 Georg Oechsler 2005-12-06 20:55:07 UTC

Actually, it seems like I can´t. Any suggestions?
