Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evolution

I frequently use both To: and Cc: for emails. Autocompletion initially
works fine for both fields from my two address books (local and LDAP) on
the first time they receive focus, but stop working after subsequent
focus.

To reproduce:
1) Open new mail message.
2) In to:, enter an address. Completion works.
3) In cc:, enter another address. Completion works.
4) Refocus on to: field with alt-tab or mouse click. Completion doesn't work.
5) Refocus on cc: field. Again, completion doesn't work.

Note that in 2 and 3, it's important to actually enter an address.
Merely changing the focus without entering an address is not sufficient
to trigger the bug.

This bug is reproducible 100% of the time on my setup.

I've tried with numerous addresses from both address books; the address
source seems to be irrelevant.

I've implied that the problem might be related to focus, but it could
easily be related to some unfocus event as well, or neither.

I just noticed that address completion also stops working when I switch
from to: to subject: and back to to:; using the cc: field is not
necessary to reproduce the symptom.
