The name parsing with last and first can be really nasty and end up having other
corner cases soon.

Like, my legal name in us is still:
de Oliveira Vivi, Rodrigo
not
Vivi, Rodrigo de Oliveira

I can imagine many other possible combinations with this and other names.

I'm not sure if it is outlook fault honestly. On my patches where this funny

seemed sane there. The only place where Last, First started was post pwclient.

I'm fine with the revert as well, but before reverting let me propose one thing
that is name_match || email_match so we cover both cases.

What do you think?
