  Hi Atle,

  This is the oppesit of what Im doing... 
 :) Yeah, this came to my mind when i was thinking about it. 
He he

...
  but would you
be needing a thing that rewrote the realname feeld? 
 not an requirement at the moment. I need the ability to search and
 fetch a users alias and rewrte the "From: " header. I just hope
 this wont break accouting stuff. 
 as Jiri wrote.. and as I'v been told by some of the guys here it's not
 safe to change the From header..

...
  if
so.. Im thinking of writing one, that can get a name out of the
database, and say that "493042423" is Peter Pan 
 If youre patch is ready ill sure will have a look at it. But i would
 prefer to look up the aliases from memory because of the better
 performance. Shouldnt be that hard if one looks at how "lookup(alias)"
 is implemented. 
As I said, Im thinking of writing a patch for it.. and I will most
likely do that next week.. It would be faster.. but ~6 milion
phonenumbers and names would be rather much to put into memro..
