I have a contact in my address book, myself, synced using CardDAV, which has 3 distinct e-mail adresses on the "others field". A screenshot of the relevant entry in the address book is attached. All other fields are empty.

When receiving an e-mail, either to jpmferreir or to joseferreira, the e-mail header gets replaced to "Me (FCUL)" as expected.

However, when receiving an e-mail to "fc51389", it does not get replaced by the display name as in the two previous cases. It does not matter which e-mail is it, I can replace the order between them freely, and whichever e-mail address happens to be the last, will not be replaced by the corresponding display name.

Can anybody replicate this behavior?

My understanding of the me thing is that it looks to identities registered in Thunderbird for the ME part, not the address book.

I don't think I follow you. What's the difference between identities registered in Thunderbird and the address book? and that identity is in fact in the address book.

Also, the name "ME", is just an arbitrary string which I provided Thunderbird with in the address book, I could have called it "Myself" or "My Email" if I wanted to.

Here's an attachment where it clearly shows that the contact is available on the Thunderbird address book, again, using CardDAV
