Bug 3235

Summary:	Extraneous double quotes inside base64-encoded From header confuse 'Reply' action

Description Michał Górny 2014-07-29 21:15:14 UTC

We have a person using Thunderbird whose mails carry the following header:

  From: =?UTF-8?B?IlBhd2XFgiBIYWpkYW4sIEpyLiI=?= <phajdan.jr@gentoo.org>

If you decode the base64, you'd see (with literal double quotes):

  "Paweł Hajdan, Jr."

In the message view, the header is displayed as:

  From: "Paweł Hajdan, Jr." <phajdan.jr@gentoo.org>

If I click the address, everything works fine. However, if I try to reply to him, claws-mail splits the address into two parts:

  To: ""Paweł Hajdan
  To: Jr."" <phajdan.jr@gentoo.org>

which obviously results in broken mail that gets queued and refused by server afterwards.
