GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 553004
E-mail sender information not always parsed/displayed correctly
Last modified: 2008-09-20 15:08:56 UTC
Please describe the problem: I got an e-mail from a sender where the sender information in the e-mail headers was as follows: From: n.m sokoli <xxx_xxxxxx@hotmail.com> In the preview pane of my Evolution mail, the sender address was displayed like this: From: n.ms <okoli xxx_xxxxxx@hotmail.com> And when I pressed the reply button, the recipient address was also wrong: n.ms <okoli xxx_xxxxxx@hotmail.com> Steps to reproduce: By sending yourself an e-mail with similar sender address and sender name. Actual results: See above. Expected results: I'd expect Evolution to display the sender address as: From: n.m sokoli <xxx_xxxxxx@hotmail.com> Does this happen every time? Yes Other information: I guess it's a simple bug related to regexp or similar methods that are being used to parse the sender address out of the e-mail headers, and it causes it not to work properly in every single case.
