Hi!

 First of all, sorry for the late response. I just recently got adopted
into the upstream team and am looking through patches now that make
sense to incorporate there directly instead of having them potential rot
within Debian alone. ;)

 I agree that these are both an annoyance and am taking a look at your
patch now and trying to bring it up to the 0.6.0 pre2 codebase, quite
some things have changed, so it isn't a straight forward patch.

 I got a working version so far, though somehow I got for the rotated
email as realname all the email addresses, have to check again wether I
have adjusted something wrongly here, or wether there is some logic
error involved.

 Also, the exit you did for no email did make the function quit on the
first addressbook entry that didn't had an email address attached to it
- I somehow guess this wasn't your attention. ;)  Fixed that in my local
copy already (moved the "if (*email) {" level to the outermost part of
the loop).

 Again, thanks for your suggestion, sorry for the delay, and a fix for
it will be soon get applied upstream.

 Enjoy!
Rhonda
