Description Milan Crha 2008-12-08 11:18:42 UTC
Forwarding from the downstream bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=475023

When you enter in e-mail fields addresses that match addresses in your
directory, the pop-down window with matches pops down before any characters of
subsequent addresses are typed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evolution-2.24.2-1.fc10.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new e-mail message
2. Start to enter an address that matches a directory address.
3. Select the default address from the pop-down list by hitting Enter.

Actual results:
The pop-down window closes and reappears empty before any characters of the
next address are typed.

Expected results:
No pop-down until the next address is matched.

Milan, the patch seems fine, but it doesn't happen to me. Any thing specific. Im on stable/latest.
Comment 3 Milan Crha 2008-12-10 11:15:41 UTC
Yes, my exact steps are these:
a) open new mail window, staying in the To field
b) start typing name of the contact, just to have only one in the list below
   the control, and highlighted rest of the address in the To field
c) Press Enter. The address changes to the contact name, underlined,
   the comma is appended at the end, with one space, cursor is at the end of
   the text. Completion list flashed, in a way it disappeared and reappeared
   empty.

It doesn't do this when you select from the list itself, as the step 3 in comment #0 says.

Akhil, do you see it?
Comment 6 Akhil Laddha 2009-02-12 09:19:18 UTC
Yup, it is easy to reproduce when you have many names starting with same 3-4 characters. 
Comment 7 Milan Crha 2009-06-17 13:13:46 UTC
Srag/Akhil, what does this wait for?
Comment 8 Srinivasa Ragavan 2009-06-17 13:30:36 UTC
