+Currently, if a From-header is of the form:\r
+\r
+ "" <address@example.com>\r
+\r
+the empty string will be treated as a valid real-name, and the entry\r
+in the search results will be empty.\r
+\r
+The new behavior here is that we treat an empty real-name field as if\r
+it were null, so that the email address will be used in the search\r
+results instead.\r
