Collected address book doesn't collect the sender's organization name.

Steps of reproduce

   have organiztion name  in the Organization field.
2.Send a message from 4.x to the testing account of Netscape 6.
3. Launch Netscape 6 messenger with the testing account.
4. Select Tasks | Address Book
5. Click on Collected Address Book.
   You'll see the collected address book does have an entry for the sender from
4.x, but
   the organization column is blank. It doesn't catch the organization info.

reassigning to chuang. Candice, did you work on this feature?

Comment 3

[scottputterman]

moving to M20. cc'ing mscott to ask how hard this would be. Presumably we could
change the address collecter to take more info than just the name and email address.

This is not part of the history ab spec, nor is it information that is contained
in the rfc822 message header that the history ab is populated from (i.e., we
don't have access to the sender's organization).
