Bug ID: 297540
Severity: normal
Version: unspecified
Priority: NOR
CC: [email protected]
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: kaddressbook doesn't correctly handle contacts where
email address field has contact name in
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Linux
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: Archlinux Packages
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Component: general
Product: kaddressbook
SUMMARY
If one creates a contact on a platform that creates a contact with the email
field filled in as per below syntax:
Email Addr Field: "Firstname Surname" <[email protected]>
Instead of the norm:
Email Addr Field: [email protected]
Then kaddressbook doesn't correctly handle that email address.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a contact with the email address field populated as per:
Email Addr Field: "Firstname Surname" <[email protected]>
Instead of the norm:
Email Addr Field: [email protected]
NOTE: One can't do this form kaddressbook as it strips out the email address
nicely. Therefore one would have to do this from:
a) An Android phone syncing with Kontact
or rather (and ease to reproduce this problem)
b) Simply import a contact formulated in this manner.
Import this contact:
BEGIN:VCARD
EMAIL:"Firstname Surname" <[email protected]>
FN:Firstname Surname
N:Surname;Firstname;;;
UID:8e548460-3843-4e39-9d71-19c7dad93864:521756
VERSION:3.0
END:VCARD
WHAT HAPPENS
2. View this contact in kaddress book. You notice the email address field is
not nicely displayed in kaddressbook search view. Rather you see
Email "Firstname Surname"
3. Compose an email in kmail search for this contact via To => select => Select
the contact and Add to To field.
You notice the email address field has the below as email address:
Firstname Surname
4. Try send email to this contact. It fails obviously.
Repeat step 1 from previous.
WHAT SHOULD HAPPENS
2. View this contact in kaddress book. You notice the email address field is
correclty displayed in kaddressbook search view. You see:
[email protected]
3. Compose an email in kmail search for this contact via To => select => Select
the contact and Add to To field.
You notice the email address field has the below as email address:
[email protected]
4. Try send email to this contact. It works.
OTHER
kaddressbook if you open the contact the email address field displays:
"Firstname Surname" <[email protected]>
It needs to be able to handle contacts with email address that are formatted in
this manner.
