           Summary: Autocompletion of addresses from address book is
                    suboptimal
           Product: kmail2
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Unlisted Binaries
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: tsdgeos at terra.es


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.0) 
OS:                Linux

The autocompletion of addresses from the adress book seems to work in a very
strange way (at least compared to kmail 1 behaviour)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
This is my setup in the address book
* Have one person named Dan XXX
* Have one person named Dani XXX
* Have three people named Daniel XXX

This is what happens when i start kmail from scratch and try to write an email
 * Type d in the To: field (noone is suggested)
 * Type a (da) in the To: field (noone is suggested)
 * Type n (dan) in the To: field (Dan is suggested)
 * Type i (dani) in the To: field (Dani is suggested)
 * Type e (danie) in the To: field (noone is suggested)
 * Type l (daniel) in the To: field (3 Daniel are suggested)
 * Press backspace (danie) in the To: field (3 Daniel are suggested)
 * Press backspace (dani) in the To: field (Dani and 3 Daniel are suggested)
 * Press backspace (dan) in the To: field (Dan, Dani and 3 Daniel are
suggested)
 * Press backspace (da) in the To: field (Dan, Dani and 3 Daniel are suggested)
 * Press backspace (d) in the To: field (Dan, Dani and 3 Daniel are suggested)
 * From now on everytime you write a "d" you get all the suggestions


Expected Results:  
I would expect that typing a "d" in the To: field always yields the same
results, while at the moment it returns noone or 5 people depending the
situation

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.39-ARCH
Compiler: gcc
