           Summary: Recent address autocomplete doesn't honor quotations
                    around the realname when traversing the list from the
                    keyboard
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.9.6
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs kde org
        ReportedBy: slambo tds net


Version:           1.9.6 (using KDE KDE 3.5.8)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
Compiler:           I used the precompiled package from the ubuntu repository
OS:                Linux

I prefer to stick to the keyboard when working, so when I go to create a new message, I hit Ctrl-N in Kmail and start typing the recipient name in the To field.  In the dropdown box, the first three of my most frequently used recipient addresses are in the format:
    "lname, fname" <user domain>

When I use the down arrow key to move to the second or third address in the list, the lname part from the first address is left in the address field and the second address replaces the remainder.  So, when the second address in the list is highlighted, I get the following in the address field:
    "lname, "lname2, fname2" <user2 domain2>

Only the portion after the last comma on the line is replaced.  This happens on the next address; if I hit the down key again, I get:
    "lname, "lname2, "lname3, fname3" <user3 domain3>

If I then hit the up arrow key, the address then becomes:
    "lname, "lname2, "lname3, "lname2, fname2" <user2 domain2>

When I hit Ctrl-Enter to send the message, I usually will get a bounce message because lname localhost is not a valid user on my system.
