Description ximian 2003-12-01 19:02:46 UTC 
I want to send two e-mails.
The first is to ten people. I include each recipient in the BCC line by
selecting from my contacts list.

The second is to nine people, a list identical to my first, minus one person.

I copy and paste the people from the first email to the second, and delete
the one person. While doing this I somehow manage to get Evolution asking
me which e-mail address to use for one of the people. I tell it.

I press send both for both e-mails.
All okay? Nope.

The second e-mail has sent to only the one person Evolution asked me the
e-mail address for.

It has not:
 1. Checked the other entries on the BCC line for validity (i.e. is it an
e-mail address?)
 2. Copied and pasted the full information from the first e-mail to the
second (i.e. both the name and e-mail address, or even a flag to say "check
the contacts list").

This is still broken in 1.4.6
Comment 2 ximian 2004-06-15 21:14:33 UTC 
Alternatively, it would be nice if the address autocomplete was more
clever.
i.e. if there was only one match for a name on the To: line, use the
e-mail address for that.
