Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evolution

I've been seeing this for the last 3 years, so it's a long standing bug.
Currently I'm reporting with evolution 2.28.3-0ubuntu3 / Lucid alpha 3.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Copy this email address:
Άλκης Γεωργόπουλος <alk...@somewhere.com>

2) Start writing a new mail and paste it to the "To:" line.

3) Copy the email address from the "To:" line and paste it to the email body.
You should be seeing:
=?UTF-8?Q?=CE=86=CE=BB=CE=BA=CE=B7=CF=82_?=
        =?UTF-8?Q?=CE=93=CE=B5=CF=89=CF=81=CE=B3=CF=8C=CF=80=CE=BF=CF=85=CE=BB?=
        =?UTF-8?Q?=CE=BF=CF=82?=
         <alk...@somewhere.com>

which obviously isn't what we want.

So *copying* from the "To:" or "Cc:" fields is broken in evolution for
non-ascii email addresses.
