Com-pli-cated. I'm in no mood to make sense of RFC 822 right now, and
Python still eludes me.

If anyone wants, it's a single function that needs modification. After I
release the program, someone can rip out my regexp and install proper
code.

Here's the one I'm going to use, though:

$pa_addr=~s/(.*)(<|\s)(.*?\@.*?)(>|\s)(.*)/$3/;
