Hi Joseph,

On 17 December 2001 at 11:38:07 [GMT-0600] (which was 17:38 where I
live) Joseph N. wrote to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and made these
points:

JN> "\"Company Inc.\"" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

JN> In the message list grid, the From: name appeared only as Company
JN> Inc.

JN> What's the purpose of the slashes?

The outer quotes are delimiters, required because the name includes a
'.' character. The inner slashes are there because ... well, someone's
put quotes around the field manually then something's added another
set to it, which then requires that the inner quotes be "literalized"
by have a '\' in front of each of them.

JN> And why are the first and the second slashes located differently
JN> in the quotation marks?

That should be explained above. '\"' means 'Literal Quote'.

JN> My real concern is whether this is something that Outlook
JN> produces,

It seems that way.

JN> or do I really need to understand what's going on...?

Not really.
