Description Thomas Haenig 2002-11-08 12:56:39 UTC

Version:           1.4.3 (using KDE 3.0.3)
Installed from:    SuSE
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.19-4GB

As I asked already at the 15th of April [kde-pim] I miss the feature to change the sort order of the displayed entries for the dialog opening when creating a new mail and select the 'to' button.

assume I create an addressbook entry:
'first name': Thomas
'last name': Haenig
'save as': Haenig, Thomas (CosiFan)

because I have a lot of business contacts I would like to sort them by 'save as' not by 'name' (which seems to be an automatic generated value).

In my case it becomes 
'name': Thomas Haenig

which results in a sort order by first name, and I can't find a possibility to customize this behaviour. This is annoying

But thanks nevertheless for your efforts.

I don't see an option "save as" in the adressbook anymore. Is this still valid?
