Thanks. So changing the option to "false" should disable NetGeo lookup,
right? Doesn't seem to work as expected here, however. Location is still shown
on some messages.

The ideal solution would be to allow the user to reassign a name to an
email address manually, for the "most common name" still might not be
the name I would like to call someone. E.g., two persons might have
identical names, and they all put their full name in the "From" header.
If I correspond with both regularly, then their full name would be the
"most common name" for both of their email addresses. But I surely want
my Zoe to tell them apart ("John Doe, Taipei" and "John Doe, Tainan"
respectively, e.g.).

Well, I can do this if I know which is the message to edit. When I have
several messages from someone, which is the one Zoe would see first when
rebuilding? The oldest one?

OK, I'll wait patiently. :-)
