I don't think I have to say anything now about this.
Thanks.

Title:
  Nickname not over-riding names in email address

Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News:
  Confirmed
Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  From what I have read in the support forum the nickname should take
  priority in the search for an email address in the to: field. It does
  not appear to work any more.

  Example:

  One friend's address is Mark<m...@yyyy.com>. The other is
  James<james.m...@xxxx.com>. Both are in my address book with Mark
  entered as the nickname of m...@yyyy.com  and James as nickname for
  james.m...@xxxx.com.

  If I type james in the To: field I get james.mark as a first entry in
  the list of available addresses.

  If I type mark I get the same address again, when I would prefer the
  first optional address to be m...@yyyy.com

  Reason it is needed:
  I am trying to avoid sending emails meant for m...@yyyy.com to James.mark 
because I do not notice in time that I have defaulted to the first entry in the 
list of available addresses.
