Description Thor Malmjursson 2010-04-11 21:49:23 UTC 
The bugzilla prefs should permit the use of a real name rather than the email prefix to be attached to posts, since simply looking at a list of email prefixes means it's kind of hard working out who the heck has posted what.  

Resolving this would, I believe, clear up bug 18831, which is to do with the Wikibugs bot. If the real name appeared attached to posts, the bot would use that instead of the email prefix.

This seems to have been fixed with the upgrade. Comment pages show name (e-mail as link) and e-mails sent out show both name and e-mail address.
