The bona-fide way to "quote" a quote is to double it up. So, you could
double it up in the recipient's name. That strikes me as being a silly
solution though.

You're using the latest TB, so you have a slightly whacky yet more
elegant solution available. Macros have more quoting possibilities
than " and '. In fact, the first character that follows the name of
the macro becomes the delimiter. So suddenly, you have a whole wealth
of them! Like: %SUBJECT=#%ABTOHandle other text by me#, or some other
character that you are certain isn't going to appear in the name.
