No, it's...

| From: hadronquark@gmail.com (Hadron A. Quark)

`(' and `)' instead of `<' and `>'.

| From: Hadron A. Quark <hadronquark@gmail.com>
... would be incorrect.

If you set `message-from-style' to 'angles, you'll get...

| From: "Hadron A. Quark" <hadronquark@gmail.com>

... which is correct, but requires quoting.  Therefore, the default
uses the `parens' style in such a case.
See `<f1> v message-from-style RET'.
