Actually, the offending client in this case is Sylpheed, much as I'd like to
blame outlook. (goodness knows, I blame it for Klez.)

I'd have to find someone with a copy of outlook to try it and be sure, but I
think outlook does "user@domain.com" <user@domain.com> which probably
wouldn't have been a problem.
