Package: kmail
Version: 1.1.41 (KDE Almost 2.0 Alpha)
Severity: wishlist

(Apologies if this is a duplicate, as I realized my mailing address was set improperly the first time.)

1. I would like to have more information fields in the address book, such as real name, street address, etc.

(Better yet would be to integrate with one of the other KDE address book apps using kparts or dcop or something.)

2. I would like to have auto-completion on the "To:" and "Cc:" lines.

In Outlook, if I wanted to send a message to "Don Sanders" and "David Faure", I could type:

     "do sa; fau"

This would work, presuming that "Don Sanders" was the only person in my address book whos name begins with "do sa"
and "David Faure" was the only person in my address book who's last name begins with "fau".

Note that Outlook does not attempt to auto-complete if the name has an "@" in it.

The auto-completion starts working in the background as soon as you hit tab or return; The completed names will show up in the
To: field a few seconds later. These names are hyperlinks, you can click on them and bring up the address book entry
for that name.

If a match fails, then Outlook draws the name with a red squiggle underneath.

If there are multiple matches, then Outlook draws a green squiggle, and clicking on the name brings up a popup menu of possible
matches. Clicking on a match replaces the name in the To: field with the selected name.

I really like this feature, as it allows me to use the address book without having to reach for the mouse.
