Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus-sendto

My Evolution addressbook has its contents sorted in the "Lastname,
Firstname"-scheme. When I select contacts from the addressbook as
recipients for mail, Evolution simply writes a comma-separated list of
"Firstname Lastname". So far everything is fine. However, when I try to
send a file via nautilus-sendto, the intended recipient's name (of
course even if it is just one person) appears as "Lastname, Firstname"
in the "to" field. If not corrected manually, this leads to Evolution
considering "Lastname" and "Firstname" separate addresses - which
results in a failure to send the mail.

Could you please fix that? Or am I simply too stupid to configure
Evolution?

Oh, by the way, I'm running hardy beta1.
