Hi,

I run Dovecot 2.0.13 fed by Postfix over LMTP. Today it rejected one
mail Postfix and Amavis accepted, generating a bounce. It was just a
spammail, but I think the sender address is legal according to RFC5321
and should be accepted. I don't like generating bounces, email should be
either rejected by postfix/pre-queue-amavis or delivered.

relay=pop3.domain.com[::1]:24, delay=0.24, delays=0.09/0.11/0.03/0.01, 
dsn=5.5.4, status=bounced (host pop3.domain.com[::1] said: 501 5.5.4 Invalid 
parameters (in reply to MAIL FROM command))

It looks like dovecot/lmtp does not accept an address with quoted
localpart that contains a space

mail from:<"admin admin"@kl38000.com>
501 5.5.4 Invalid parameters
mail from:<"adminadmin"@kl38000.com>
250 2.1.0 OK
mail from:<"admin<admin"@kl38000.com>
250 2.1.0 OK
