Magnus, can you please set the appropriate flags to get this into a TB release version as soon as possible, even for TB31 if possible?
I'm seeing more and more bug reports where users complain that nickname searches no longer work (they never have, but they appeared to... but now, depending on scenario / search words and data sets, users might see more irrelevant results, also because of irrelevant matches from collected addresses, resulting from our former mis-design (now fixed) to use collected addresses for remote-content permissions). We should really land all autocomplete fixes fast, to avoid getting more unqualified complaints for things we have already fixed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/956618 Title: Nickname not over-riding names in email address Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: Fix Released Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: From what I have read in the support forum the nickname should take priority in the search for an email address in the to: field. It does not appear to work any more. Example: One friend's address is Mark<m...@yyyy.com>. The other is James<james.m...@xxxx.com>. Both are in my address book with Mark entered as the nickname of m...@yyyy.com and James as nickname for james.m...@xxxx.com. If I type james in the To: field I get james.mark as a first entry in the list of available addresses. If I type mark I get the same address again, when I would prefer the first optional address to be m...@yyyy.com Reason it is needed: I am trying to avoid sending emails meant for m...@yyyy.com to James.mark because I do not notice in time that I have defaulted to the first entry in the list of available addresses.
