R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment:

parseaddr is for parsing the contents of an address header, not for parsing any 
additional text.  So the correct way to call it is parseaddress('someone 
<some@email.address>').

In any case, please look in to the new email policies, which provide a much 
more convenient API:

    >>> from email import message_from_bytes
    >>> from email.policy import default
    >>> m = message_from_bytes(b'Subject: I am a bug [Random]\r\nFrom: someone 
<some@email.address>\r\n\r\n', policy=default)
    >>> m['from']
    'someone <some@email.address>'
    >>> m['from'].addresses
    (Address(display_name='someone', username='some', domain='email.address'),)
    >>> m['from'].addresses[0].display_name
    'someone'
    >>> m['from'].addresses[0].username
    'some'
    >>> m['from'].addresses[0].addr_spec
    'some@email.address'
