It would appear that the cause of this is a different case of his email address: JoeSmith@domain.com. I am not sure if this is further complicated by the reversal of his full name and or the addition of quotes surrounding his name by his emailer: i.e. Smith, Joe or "Smith, Joe" Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Expected Results: If there is a case insensitive match on an email address, then no new address book entry should be created, regardless of case of email address or proper name of email sender/addressee.
