For me, it is the same behaviour as Philip Schmidt describes.
Take for example the name "Paulchen Panther". When i type "Pa" in the composer,
nothing happens. Now, typing further, ASAP it gets "Paulchen" or "Panther", the
Addressbook-completion jumps in. From this point, typing "Pa" immediately gives
"Paulchen Panther" Addressbook-completion. BUT ONLY PAULCHEN PANTHER! Other
Items don't get completed, until i write at least one complete word of the
name.

Another thing that drives me crazy, is the completion of recent addresses: it
does not match substrings starting in the middle of the Address.
Take "paulchenpanther at blackdiamond.com". When typing "paulchen", i get the
address completed correctly, but "panther" does not get any completions!
This is quite annoying, as i really don't remember all the mailaddresses.
people chose.
AFAIR in kmail-3.5 (probably also 4.4), the name of person also was taken into
the recent addresses.
I answered a mail of Paulchen, the entry in the addressedit was "Paulchen
Panther <paulchenpanther at blackdianmond.com>". Now only
"paulchenpanther at blackdiamond" gets pushed in the recent used addresses.

I know, it got a little bit offtopic... Sry...
Hope the On-Topic-part was clear enough.
