I am having a few issues with Mail.app rules:

If I have a rule that moves a message to a given folder based on the recipient (in my case, any recipient), the rule seems to be applied to the entire display name and not the actual email address.

Example:

Move message to Folder if "Any Recipient" is mr-big@big.com will not move messages addressed Mr Big<mr-big@big.com>, or The Big One<mr-big@big.com> etc.

Really annoying - is there a work around / fix so that Mail checks the actual email address?

(The 'contains' rule is not really what I want as it seems to grab addresses like i-am-mr-big@big.com)
