Thank you. I suspected that the regex looked for letters, numbers and

find anything explicitly stating such.
These From_ lines are parsed using a hand-written parser. It doesn't try
to parse the mail address as a mail address at that stage, so it
doesn't look for letters and numbers or the @ symbol. My quick look at
the source reveals the format mutt expects:
/*
* A valid message separator looks like:
*
* From [ <return-path> ] <weekday> <month> <day> <time> [ <timezone> ] <year>
*/
Looking at the source, it seems to support quoting the return path part
using double quotes. This is untested, but quoting the whole part as in:
From "foo [EMAIL PROTECTED]" ...
could help. I can't help you on making your MDA produce that, though...
