Yeah, I've seen that one as well. My regex is only meant to match the
definition of an 'addr-spec' token (described as "global" or "simple"
address) in section 6.1 of the RFC822 grammar, as opposed to a
'mailbox' or 'address'. I figure people aren't going to type the "John
Doe <john@doe.com>" format into a form, nor named lists ('group' token
in the grammar).
