Hi,
The regular expression "mail-extr-initial-pattern", used in
mail-extr.el to match initials in email addresses, has trouble with
Chinese names formatted with spaces. For example, it incorrectly
identifies the "林" in "林 欣璇" as an initial. This causes
mail-extr-voodoo to modify the name to "林. 欣璇".
I'd guess the easiest way to fix it would be to extend
mail-extr-disable-voodoo to include Chinese characters:
(defcustom mail-extr-disable-voodoo "\\cj\\|\\cc" ...)
but I'm just guessing.
Yours truly,
Brian Schack
