Now that we've got emacs-based testing, this change needs to update the
test suite as well.

Personally, I like to see email addresses, and I think that's a sane
default, so I'd actually prefer 'partial as the default setting here.

I tried changing that and hoped that that would let me not even update
the test suite. But then I found that comapred to the current state,
adding this patch actually adds unnecessary double-quotation marks
around user's names. That's annoying.

Can we get that cleaned up?

Meanwhile, I just pushed your three patches for cleaning up the display
of subjects[*]. So, thanks!

-Carl

[*] None of these needed test-suite changes, which actually just points
out holes in our test suite here.
