Description John Maraist 2003-09-13 22:55:45 UTC
Version:           1.5.3 (using KDE KDE 3.1.3)
Installed from:    Mandrake RPMs
OS:          Linux

A handy option would be to see, next to email addresses in the  headers, icons indicating whether or not that address is known to the address book.

This would make it alot easier to tell whether a person's already been entered, whether this address of theirs is entered, etc.

 - It might be customizable as to whether an icon shows
   up when an address/name is known.
 - Or whether an icon shows up when it's unknown.
 - And for the icons which are used in each case.
 - Perhaps a distinct icon when the name is known but the
   address isn't.

Thanks for all the great work --- it's much appreciated!

Rewrite message headers to show if sender in addressbook _before_ filters would result much better antispam filtering :)

It would also be nice if mousing over the "known address" icon or highlighted email address would display the corresponding contact information or at least the person's name.  Often people send group emails without names included and it becomes a hassle to figure out who the message was sent to based on the list of emails.  The ultimate would be an option to look up all names at once and display the real names in the header info box.
