Unfortunately, I don't have a version of 20.2 to test with here.
However, there are two things that you can do to try to help me debug
this:

First, please tell me where the mail-extr library is.  If there is one
in your bbdb lisp directory, then you should remove it, restart Emacs,
and see if you still have the problem.

If you do have the problem, insert the following text in the *scratch*
buffer, and type C-j (control j) after it.  Send back the results.

    (mail-extract-address-components "Max Schäfer <max@plank.org>")

Thanks.
