[horde] To: and From: formatting problem

Everyone.  This is the intended behaviour.

If you are sending the mail, then presumably you know who it is from.
What good is a listing that shows lots of e-mail from yourself?  It is
generally much more informative to show who you sent the mail to than
to show only that you sent it.

This feature is particularly important/useful in the "sent-mail" type
folders, where all the mail is from you. :)

Doing this used to be a no-brainer.  Now that Horde/IMP allow multiple
identities, one could argue it might be nice to see which identity sent
the mails (i.e. show the From: address instead of the To: address).  This
would probably only be useful if you had a lot of identities and routinely
CC yourself though.  Someone might propose making this configurable for
that reason, though I still doubt the usefulness of showing the From: when
it is from yourself...
