That is fine.  Find below our test addresses.


Salam-Shalom,

ps.
Here is our test data set. The second string is the exepcted result, if
it is NULL we can't extract a mail address from the string:

      { "Werner Koch <w...@gnupg.org>", "w...@gnupg.org" },
      { "<w...@gnupg.org>", "w...@gnupg.org" },
      { "w...@gnupg.org", "w...@gnupg.org" },
      { "w...@gnupg.org ", NULL },
      { " w...@gnupg.org", NULL },
      { "Werner Koch (test) <w...@gnupg.org>", "w...@gnupg.org" },
      { "Werner Koch <w...@gnupg.org> (test)", "w...@gnupg.org" },
      { "Werner Koch <w...@gnupg.org (test)", NULL },
      { "Werner Koch <w...@gnupg.org >", NULL },
      { "Werner Koch <w...@gnupg.org", NULL },
      { "", NULL },
      { "@", NULL },
      { "bar <>", NULL },
      { "<f...@example.org>", "f...@example.org" },
      { "<f...@example.org>", "f...@example.org" },
      { "<.f...@example.org>", ".f...@example.org" },
      { "<fo...@example.org>", "fo...@example.org" },
      { "<foo.....@example.org>", "foo.....@example.org" },
      { "<f...@example.org.>", NULL },
      { "<f...@example..org>", NULL },
      { "<foo@.>", NULL },
      { "<@example.org>", NULL },
      { "<foo@@example.org>", NULL },
      { "<@f...@example.org>", NULL },
      { "<f...@example.org> ()", "f...@example.org" },
      { "<fo()o...@example.org> ()", "fo()o...@example.org" },
      { "<fo()o...@example.org> ()", "fo()o...@example.org" },
      { "fo()o...@example.org", NULL},
      { "Mr. Foo <f...@example.org><b...@example.net>", "f...@example.org"},
      { "Surname, Forename | company <f...@example.org>", "f...@example.org"},
      /* The next one is for sure not RFC-822 correct but nevertheless
       * the way gpg does it.  We won't change it because the user-id
       * is only rfc-822 alike and not compliant (think only of our
       * utf-8 requirement).  */
      { "\"<f...@example.org>\" <f...@example.net>", "f...@example.org"},
