231065 - Entrys in address book with commas cause problem with auto-complete in address fields

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: Message Compose Window, defect)

Description

[Brian Moon]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Firebird/0.7
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Firebird/0.7

I have an entry like the following in my Address Book:

Display: "Handsom Guy, example.com"
email: [e-mail]

If I type ahead "hguy", it auto-completes: "Handsom Guy, example.com"
<[e-mail]>.  If I hit enter, the first line is filled with the entire
address: "Handsom Guy, example.com" <[e-mail]>.  However, the second
line has also been filled with only: , example.com" <[e-mail]>

This only happens with the commas.  It also does not happen all the time.  I can
not quite figure out what makes it happen and what does not.  Also, if I simply
hit my left arrow key, it fills the first line and does nothing in the second line.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. See Details
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
bad address fill

Expected Results:  
nothing on second line.

I am using .5a (20040105).  I did see this before however.  I had ignored it
until now as I was used to commas messing everything up in MSOE.  TB can do
better. :)
