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. -- War doesn't determine who's right, just who's left. -- Paul B. Gallagher _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
