Description Alexander Potashev 2016-10-28 13:42:05 UTC
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/53.0.2785.143 Safari/537.36
Build Identifier: 

Since a recent update, KMail started replacing sender name with "Me" for email that I have sent, and also my name in the recipients list with the same.

This is not handy because I have two profiles, and it's important to see which email address I used for sending a specific email message. From now on I'm bound to pressing "V" to see the full headers.

Please change "Me" back to the contents of "From:" / "To:"

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Christoph Feck 2016-10-28 22:30:10 UTC
If this "feature" is to be kept, the string need to be separated for the "From" and "To" cases for separate translation.

english:
    From: Me
    To: Me
german:
    Von: Mir
    An: Mich
