           Summary: Quick search doesn't search From addresses when From
                    name is present
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.11.4
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: andy.pavlo at gmail.com


Version:           1.11.4 (using KDE 4.2.4)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I have a problem where somebody sends me emails from both their phone and their
laptop, and I am unable to easily search for both types of messages even though
they are coming from the same account. The laptop emails have the From field
set as "Joe Blow <joe at blow.com>" while the phone emails have the From field set
as "joe at blow.com". I should be able to just to type in "joe at blow.com" in the
quick search toolbar and get both sets of emails. Unfortunately, from what I
can tell Kmail will only pick up the ones where the From is just the email
address. I have to separately search "Joe Blow" in order to look at the other
emails or use the Full Search feature, which obviously takes longer to set-up.

Please fix the quick search to also include the email address of full From
names.
