Address auto-fill leaves caps into addresses at composition
Last modified: 2005-11-30 12:18:14 UTC
Please describe the problem: The address auto-fill in the to-field of a new message is too intrusive: when it finds a match for just the first letter of the address I'm trying to type, it changes the initial letter to a capital letter and *does not change it back* when the guess turns out to be wrong. I suspect that aubergine@foo.com is at least on the specification level if not in practice different from Aubergine@foo.com, so I keep having to change the addresses back by hand, which is horribly frustrating. Steps to reproduce: 1. Add an entry in the address book starting by e.g. A (Anne Jones <foo@bar.com>) 2. Compose a new message 3. Write e.g. the address aubergine@foo.com in the address field. Actual results: Now the address reads "Aubergine@foo.com" The 'a' in aubergine matches with the A in Anne, so the matching is done and partially undone when I type u (for aUbergine) and the matcher notices it has no more options left. Expected results: The address should read aubergine@foo.com, as I typed it. The matching should be unmade properly when the guess turns out to be wrong. Does this happen every time? Yes. Other information:
hi, thanks for reporting. sini, do you think this is a duplicate of bug 271777?
Yeah, sorry - it's weird that I didn't spot it from the titles, but maybe the bugzilla listing was only showing me the Mailer bugs since I thought this'd be a mailer thing. Thanks for your help! *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 271777 ***
