Many people I receive e-mails from have their name in this format:
"LASTNAME, Firstname" <email>
I would like to see a change in the way TB adds these names to addressbook, at
present it is in this form:
First: "LASTNAME,
Last: Firstname"
Display: "LASTNAME, Firstname"
When writing email to a person that is in my addressbook like this, writing part
of his/her last name won't autocomplete the whole name because of the " in front
of lastname, also the lastname and firstname is set up the opposite way..
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Receive an email from user that has his/her name defined as "LASTNAME, Firstname"
2. Add sender to addressbook.
3. See the addressbook entry just created.
Actual Results:
Addressbook contains:
First: "LASTNAME,
Last: Firstname"
Display: "LASTNAME, Firstname"
Expected Results:
Addressbook should contain:
First: Firstname
Last: LASTNAME
Display: "LASTNAME, Firstname"
