[imp] Small Name Display Bug in IMP 3.1

[Rick Ennis]

Come to think of it, switching the order of the strpos() fixes my problem,
but wouldn't that just make for a subset issue in the other direction?
...if  the sender's address were a subset of mine basically.

I don't know php, but is there a better function to use here than strpos()?
Shouldn't it just be a test for straight equality?
