comma in "from" results in two addresses when replying

If the name being part of an email address contains a comma: image

when replying to (or replying to all) the "to" input field contains two addresses, one of them being a non-sense: image

If I'm understanding RFC2822 correctly, commas are actually illegal in From headers unless wrapped in double quotes like so: "User, Sicher 24" <info@bla bla>. If that's how it was written in the original email, that means that we removed those somewhere during our handling of the message – but if that's how it arrived then this is actually a somewhat expected behaviour :­)

I'll test it on myself with some funky addresses and see how it turns out.

@tadzik would the original message header help?

@kotecky absolutely – if it contains anything you'd rather not publicize, feel free to email it to me at <my github username>@runbox.com
