Description Christian Hammers 2007-04-16 23:02:55 UTC

Version:           1.2.3 (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
Compiler:          - -
OS:                Linux

Addressbook entries are usually stored as
  Given Name: Christian
  Last Name: Hammers
  -> Formatted Name: Hammers, Christian
as browsing them by their family name is most common.

The address label on the other hand should *not* use the formatted name but the as-is name as
letters never use reverse-comma format for their envelope labels. So my address label should 
be displayed and printed as
  Christian Hammers
  Roermonder Straße 112a
  52072 Aachen

bye,

The development of the old KAddressBook will be discontinued for KDE 4.4.
Since the new application has the same name, but a completly new code base we close all bug reports against the old version and ask the submitters to resend there reports against the new product.
