Can you give me an example of a before-and-after you change the address?
Do you have commas in the wrong places, etc?

Example:

Doe, John <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

This is wrong, you'd need to use:

"Doe, John" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

This is because commas are used to separate addresses and so in the first
example, it would think that "Doe" is a complete email address which is
obviously incorrect.

I'm just guessing here, this may not be what you are experiencing.

This is all handled in Camel which is in the evolution package.
