Description

It looks like the digest emails are being sent out with incorrect summaries, showing wrong senders. For example, see attached derby-dev digest. The summary says:

derby-dev Digest 2 Jun 2005 20:52:25 -0000 Issue 322

[jira] Updated: (DERBY-318) SYS.SYSCOLUMN problem with "GENERATED BY DEFAULT" column w/ Network Server
        5078 by: Philip Wilder (JIRA)


But Philip Wilder did not make that particular update, nor most of the others the summary claims. The body of that email in the digest is:

Date: Thu, 2 Jun 2005 22:19:02 +0200 (CEST)
From: "Samuel Andrew McIntyre (JIRA)" <[e-mail]>
Subject: [jira] Updated: (DERBY-318) SYS.SYSCOLUMN problem with "GENERATED BY DEFAULT" column w/ Network Server
To: [e-mail]
Message-ID: <[e-mail]>


It looks like the digest software may be being confused by JIRA's From format, which is "Joe Bloggs (JIRA) <[e-mail]>", where "Joe Bloggs" varies, but "[e-mail]" is always the same. Perhaps it caches the "Joe Bloggs" part.
