So it should read: foo [bar] The other way around, when writing display names in quoted strings, no quoting is done even when it would be needed. Writing a message with From: "foo/bar" the From: header is copied verbatim to the outgoing mail, but should get quoted like: From: "foo//bar" cheers sascha -- Sascha Wilde "Gimme about 10 seconds to think for a minute..."
