This is simpler and should satisfy most people, those which
would like to have really fancy control should do their
voodoo in an advice on `bbdb-dwim-net-address'.
In fact I couldn't see a nice way to specify it by a format
string, it would have been more like a sexp to handle different
cases, e.g.
(if mail-name
mail-name
(if title
(concat title " " name)
name))
and IMHO this is kind of over engineering.
