bad address parsing on wide reply

bad address parsing on wide reply

[Ted Rathkopf]

I'm getting an incorrectly formatted CC: line when I try to do a wide
reply.


The mail sent to me has the following To: and CC: lines

To: "Smith, David" <dsmith@foo.com>, "Rathkopf, Ted" <rathkopf@foo.com>,
        "Jones, Kirk" <kjones@foo.com>
CC: "Miller, Kim" <kmiller@foo.com>
From: John Graham <jgraham@foo.com>

When I hit "f" to do a wide reply, I get the following lines in my
outgoing mail:

To: John Graham <jgraham@foo.com>
Cc: "Smith, David" <dsmith@foo.com>,  "Rathkopf, "Jones,
	  Kirk" <kjones@foo.com>, "Miller,  Kim" <kmiller@foo.com>

As you can see, for some reason the "Rathkopf, Ted" and "Jones, Kirk"
are getting munged together.

Has anyone seen this before?


I'm using Pterodactyl Gnus 0.84 with xemacs 21.1

Does it help to frob mail-use-rfc822?

Nope.  Doesn't seem to.

I'm surprised.  That's what fixed this problem for me.  I haven't seen 
it since setting mail-use-rfc822 to t and our corporate address book
serves up the same format as you describe in your problem report.

I tried the same (with 0.91), and I get

To: John Graham <jgraham@foo.com>
Cc: "Smith, David" <dsmith@foo.com>,  "Rathkopf, Ted" <rathkopf@foo.com>,
	  "Jones, Kirk" <kjones@foo.com>,  "Miller, Kim" <kmiller@foo.com>

which looks OK to me...  Could you try upgrading and see whether the
bug disappears?
