(Get the code!)
Oops, sorry, I'm a newbie... I should add a few details...
The problem is only apparent because of the issues with commas (",") but it is
believed that it might be caused by a slight interpretation problem as to how to
deal with email address which contain things which under RFC (2)822 should be
quoted but because they contain non-ASCII characters must be encoded using RFC 2047.
In that case, it is believed that quoting should not be added before encoding
the email address using RFC 2047 (which unfortunatly Mozilla does).
It also expects to see that quoting when it receives emails and if it is missing
and the "From:" line contains a comma (",") it think that the "From:" line
contains two email address (which cause problem when replying and when
displaying the list of messages (only one email adddress is shown)).
This is an example of an email address Mozilla has trouble with:
From: =?iso-8859-
which get converted into this
From: Martin, André <email address hidden>
Due to the presence of an unquoted "," (comma) when we try to reply it thinks
we're trying to reply to two addresses...
This is what Mozilla generates when sending an email:
From: =?ISO-8859-
