Hallo Cory,

On Mon, 29 Aug 2005 09:37:53 +0200GMT (29-8-2005, 9:37 +0200, where I
live), you wrote:

That is as it should. It is possible to set multiple reply-to
addresses and to do that you need to use the comma as address
separator.
So if you want replies to go to both your home and office addresses,
you set your headers so:
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Therefore a reply-to with a comma that's not enclosed in quotes should
be used as address separator.
So when you've got contacts using lastname, firstname <address>
without quotes around the name, you should rebuke them for non RFC
compliant behaviour, not TB.

I don't know about other clients, but TB (at least my version) is
properly setting the quotes when a comma is encountered.
