I was unable to locate a mail that I had just sent in my sent folder and found that it was due to a sorting problem.  Some of the mails to this sender were to the name:
John Smith
While others were to:
"John Smith"
The sorting places these at completely different locations.

Would it be possible to update the sorting code to group these together as being equal?

Thanks in advance,
