Description Alexander Potashev 2010-11-30 02:26:08 UTC 
Version:           2.0.89 (using KDE 4.5.80) 
OS:                Linux



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open an e-mail from a person who wrote his name in Russian (or probably with any non-ascii chars) in the "From" field.
2. click right mouse button on his name or e-mail address in the "From" field, click "Add to Address Book".
3. select an address book from the list, click OK

Actual Results:  
1. You get the message "The email address = was added to your address book; you can add more information to this entry by opening the address book."

Note that the name of the person is replaced by "=".

2. In the address book you get a new contact with empty name and email "=".


OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.32
