*** Please type your report below this line *** I use exim4 for
sending mail from a desktop system and my username is rather silly. I
would like my full name to appear in send messages, which I have
configured in '/etc/email-addresses'.  Adding the 'w' option to the
rewrite rules in `rewrite/31_exim4-config_rewriting' seems to
acomplish this.

Hello,
In regular setups with correctly configured MUA and GECOS adding w to the
rewriting flag *breaks* things:

Without w:
ametzler@argenau:~/GIT/exim/src$ /usr/sbin/exim4 -brw 'Andreas Metzler 
<ametzler@localhost>' | grep ' from:'
    from: Andreas Metzler <[email protected]>

with w:
ametzler@argenau:~/GIT/exim/src$ /usr/sbin/exim4 -brw 'Andreas Metzler 
<ametzler@localhost>' | grep ' from:'
    from: [email protected]

With w, the name is removed from the From header.

As this is a wishlist request I am cosing the bug-report.
