Subject: [sup-talk] question about contacts
Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2008 20:07:23 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <f96e0240804291707l4570dbd4xb1000a37a7d52f3@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi All,

I've been running sup all day (and importing old folders, etc).  So
far, I really like it although I've found a few bugs [I'll submit
patches or bug reports when I find the cause].  I have a question
about the display names used in threads.  Aside from overriding the
name/alias displayed with the contact manager, is there a way to tell
sup to just 'let it be' for certain messages?

We use the RT ticketing system at work and that sees the From: header
be: "user at example.com via RT" <support at example.com>.  We have (many)
users that don't bother to include a .sig or sign emails, so this
identifier is sometimes the fastest way to determine the originator of
the mail...can I make sup leave the display name alone on a
mail-by-mail basis?

Thanks
-Ben
