949481 - [faceted search] Incorrect display name in To: field on global search result pages

Status: NEW

(Thunderbird :: Search, defect)

Description

[Marius Hudea]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:25.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/25.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20131112160018

Steps to reproduce:

View > Layout > Classic  , View > Folders > Unified

In the text field where it says Search... <Ctrl+K> i entered a search phrase. 


Actual results:

On the search results page that opened in a new tab, several results showed up but under each title, it says To: John Smith  where the "John Smith" (not actual name obviously) is the name associated to an email address added in Thunderbird. 

However, there are no actual emails from that address in the search results, the search results are from 4 separate email addresses (with accounts in Thunderbird) and all those 4 accounts have different names.  There are 81 results, from 4 different email addresses, which are on 2 different domain names if that matters.

In the Tools > Account settings .. the name shown in To: belongs to an account that is the second in the list of accounts but it may have been the first account created ... I'm not sure now. Just saying, in case the issue is something as simple as a function or code snippet always returning a 0 or 1 instead of actual account number.

The name also belongs to an email address that's first alphabetically for that domain (ex if there are 3 accounts made for [e-mail] , [e-mail] , [e-mail] shown in this order in the Account settings, the name belongs to [e-mail])





Expected results:

It should show the name set in the account for each email address.

Confirming: I've also observed this problem on TB24, WinXP. Names, especially your own, are completely wrong on the first results page (faceted search results).
