[Bug 885629] Re: Contact addresses don't show up when composing a message

 

I just discovered that if you type a '%' in the Search field, all the
names  in the Address list show up. '%' is the SQL wildcard symbol.

Is this the way the 'Bcc:' dialog window is supposed to work?

Title:
  Contact  addresses don't show up when composing a message

Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When I compose a new message, then click on the BCC button, a window
  opens with the names of my address books, but there are no email
  addresses available to select. I can go back to  the main mail window,
  and click on the Contacts icon, and see all the addresses there. I can
  even Select All and Copy, then switch back to the draft email, but
  Paste is inactive when I try to paste the addresses in the BCC line.

  When I upgraded Ubuntu to 11.10, Evolution converted from mailbox
  format to mbox (or vice versa). I recently deleted or marked as
  inactive the copy of my mailbox that was created in the conversion,
  but didn't seem to be used. I wonder if this is connected to my
  problem.

  Thanks for looking into this problem for me.
