But it *is* quite properly quoted for an RFC822 mailbox (localpart@domain).
Ugly, but legal. Outside pair of " quote the string, and inside the string
the " that are part of the localpart are properly \ escaped.
Of course, 822 is *oogly*. foobar@oracle(this is a comment).com is legitimate too,
as are some even uglier. See 822, section 3.1.4. Bring a barf bucket. :)
