Sorry to be so slow, but just trying to get clear on this ...

So, putting the name after the numbers in the main phone field does not work (Newton for
some unknown reason adds spurious digits), but ... does putting the name after the
extension number (in the extension field) work, or does it work only if you put the name
alone in the extension field (no extension number)? And which method was working but
with a delay?

Or am I even more confused than I realize?
