Detecting addressee in letters in Mentions folders #42

For when you get funds: Example file: http://vmcp.conaltuohy.com/xtf/view?docId=tei/Mentions/Selected Mentions letters/M52-10-08-final.xml I noticed a problem with mentions letters coming up with Mueller as the author; we fixed it by starting the correspondent line with From. The Author facet now helpfully shows up as, for example, "Charles La Trobe to Ronald Gunn". But the Addressee facet for these files shows "Ferdinand von Mueller".

I suspect that the algorithm needs to be tweaked to check for to in the text of the correspondent style, so that the part of it after to is identified as the Addressee. It would be a pity to lose the current identification of correspondent for these files which shows up everything after From, but if we have to, then it's a price I think worth paying to prevent Mueller being the default Addressee.

this has been done, and should've been closed a while ago
