Description Harald Boehmecke 2010-02-18 17:27:36 UTC
Hi,

This is a regression...

Contacts that have 2 or more spaces (e.g. DSA-DE ICS-TA-IP Network) are not displayed correctly as the "third name" will not be Displayed (e.g. DSA-DE ICS-TA-IP)

This is problematic as we have a lot of divisions that start with the same acronims:

DSA-DE ICS-TA-IP Network
DSA-DE ICS-TA-IP Server
DSA-DE ICS-TA-IP Management

and so on...

and when I want to mail one of these I cannot see which one I am sending this too until I select it from the drop-down menu on the "To:" field.

It looks like this:

To: DSA-DE ICS-TA-IP
   -----------------------
   |DSA-DE ICS-TA-IP     |
   |DSA-DE ICS-TA-IP     | < Drop-Down Menu
   |DSA-DE ICS-TA-IP     |
   -----------------------

Can this be reverted so that it will display contacts correctly? This was not an issue on Ubuntu 8.04/8.10 and I beleive also 9.04 though I am not sure.

Regards,

Harald
