           Summary: Filtering by from field behaves unexpectedly

I had trouble filtering emails where the string to filter by was in the name of
the sender, instead of their address. The email was something along the lines
of:

Jane Smith (via FILTER) <noreply at rz.example.com>

I was able to filter more recent versions of the automated email that looked
the following:

Jane Smith (via FILTER) <noreply at FILTER.example.com>

by using:

from matchcase "FILTER"

However, the older versions in the above format eluded me. I finally tried:

header "From" matchcase "FILTER"

which worked. Is this the intended way of filtering this, or is this a bug?
