When message was built from index it bypassed person canonization.

Actually, this was completely independent of the person canonization
feature.  Thread index mode, when constructing the from-list,
identified authors by name, not by email.  The people not in
contacts.txt and appearing in from fields with varying names were
listed several times.

Attached patch also fixes this.
