Mine, too, as you've seen.

Interesting, I haven't tried that.

I sent the messages to my daughter but used Send Later so that they
would not really go out. I then viewed the message sources. In all
cases, the quotes entirely bracketed the display name and only
bracketed the display name.

Not my experience, as you've seen, but I perhaps things are different without the spaces. Will have to try that.

I did not escape the explicit quote marks. I did not place <>
brackets around my daughter's actual E-mail address in my Address
Book, but Thunderbird added them. They were properly positioned.

Recipient emails are not at issue here, but like you I do not use angle brackets in my address book or in my own address. SeaMonkey adds them unless they are already present when I'm replying to a message that included them.

I am quite sure that the same MailNews Core -- containing the
Address Book component -- used by Thunderbird (which I used for my
tests) is also used by SeaMonkey.

Have you tried your cases in SeaMOnkey's Safe Mode?  I will redo my
tests in Thunderbird's Safe Mode later today, after I tend my garden
(this being the first in many days without a heat wave).

I have not. Will try that in my next round of testing.
