My fault. Sorry! In the "Name Format" menu is the "Select the format
used to sort names" option included which I meant. I can't recognize
where/when this option is used. Neither in Turba nor in the address book
of a new message.
Condition: You don't click on the header row of the address book list in
Turba first.
I will send you a test login account to my Horde installation to test it.
