** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: evolution
  
  What works is when I type in the partial name of a contact stored in
  evolution, and let the client autofill the best match, and then hit
  enter to use whatever selected address (either the first, or by using
  another of multiple choices). What does not work is when that same
  contact is used by typing in the email address instead of the name. An
  example is when sending an email to my wife's work I can just type in
  the first few letters of her name, hit enter, and it's good, but when I
  type in the first part of her work email, and let the client fill in the
  rest and hit enter this happens:
  
- C, ammie Lastname <em...@address.com> --with the cursor placed in the
- same position you were at when you were typing, which in this case was
- before the first a in the first name.
+ C, ammie Lastname <em...@address.com> --No matter how much of the email
+ address I type in it will place the cursor in the same position, which
+ for me is right before the first a in the first name
  
  Interestingly enough though in a new message window it will only do this
  the first time. After having it do this once if you select all and re
  type in the same few first letters to let the autofill happen and hit
  enter it will enter in the address in the proper format, and even place
  the type cursor at the end of the address.
  
  This will obviously make the message not get sent correctly, and is a
  totally easy thing to fix yourself every time you put in the address,
  but I figured I would file a bug on it even though it doesn't really
  cause any sort of major functionality issues lol.
