Subject: Handling Email Addresses Without Name
Date: Fri, 14 Jan 2022 16:54:05 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87pmouyoea.fsf@kevinjfoley.me> (raw)

I realized I have a few messages, where the "from" address is missing a
name.  For example, the from header is "jdoe@example.com" instead of
"John Doe <jdoe@example.com>", which means the message won't show up if
I search "from:John".

Is there anyway to handle this?  Perhaps someway to annotate these
messages so they would show up when searching "from:John"?

Thanks,
Kevin
