            Bug ID: 304871
          Severity: wishlist
           Version: 4.9.0
          Priority: NOR
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
           Summary: Show "Name <name at example.com>" instead of just "Name"
                    in recipient selection dialog
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: lekensteyn at gmail.com
          Hardware: Archlinux Packages
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: composer
           Product: kmail2

When a contact does not have a name attached on the mail, an empty row shows up
in the "Select Recipient" dialog. This makes it hard to find a email address
without moving the mouse over a row to open a tooltip.

Another use case is when a contact lists only the name instead of the full
name. When there are multiple "Bob" s in the contact list, one currently has to
hover over each entry, degrading productivity.

The "Select Recipient" dialog can be opened by opening the composer and hitting
the "Select..." button next to the To/Cc/Bcc fields.

Feature request: change the row to include the email address.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the composer ("New Message")
2. Click the "Select..." button
3. Look at the rows
Actual Results:  
case 1: Some rows are empty because there is no name.
case 2: Some rows contain duplicate names, e.g. "Bob".

Expected Results:  
There should be an email address so that the correct address can be quickly
picked, such as "Bob <bob at example.com>"
