double-quotes handled inconsistent for list's description

[Windl]

(I'll use a double exclamation mark (!!) instead of a
double-quote here, because it seems the double-quotes
are converted to """ here by mistake)
If I enter a short description like the following line
for a mailing list:
List about !!something interesting!!

mailman-2.1.4 cunnecessarily converts the double quotes
(!!) to " in EMail header values. Example:
List-Id: !!List about "something interesting"
!! <email address hidden>

I think that the quoting in font of an EMail address
enclosed by anglr brackets (<...>) is not necessary,
and using HTML is wron and not portable. I might work
with some broken clients however.

I've learned that "&quit;" is stored in mailman's list
configuration file like this:
description = 'Talking about "this"'
where
description = 'Talking about "this"'
would work. Actually when using config_list to make that
change, it tuns out that the Web interface can't handle
that, producing just 'Talking about '. list_lists however
would print the correct strings.

Summary: This is not just a problem in mail headers.
