Emailaddresses missing on contact card #1021

Closed FRvanderVeen closed 1 year ago

FRvanderVeen commented 1 year ago

I configured SimpleContacts to show the email fields. When I open my contacts I do not see an emailaddress, while I'm sure this contact has an emailaddress. This contact exists in multiple addressbooks (whatsapp, signal and one synced with davx5). When I click on the specific addressbook (which opens the edit screen) the emailaddresses show up. When I disable "merge duplicate contacts" and open the contact the addresses also show up.

the contact is apparently stored multiple times and not all instances have an email

That's true. But there is also only 1 instance of the contact that has a birthday and address filled. And these are shown. While email is not. That seems illogical to me.

I searched the code and in ViewContactActivity.kt I see something special is done for duplicates in setupXxxx. For instance phonenumbers and addresses. Why isn't this done for emailaddresses?
