Issue with sender's 'From' address where display name is not quoted

[donald.dawson at bakerbotts.com]

We have received email from a reputable list serve that has the
following format of 'From' address in the unmodified email header:

	H??From: Patrick A. Guida, Duffy & Sweeney, LTD
<ali-aba at ali-aba.org>

The internally delivered email has the following 'From' header:

	From: Patrick.A.Guida at bakerbotts.com,
Duffy.&.Sweeney at bakerbotts.com, LTD <ali-aba at ali-aba.org>

It appears they are not RFC-Compliant on the 'From' address since they
did not have quotes around their display name.

I have tested re-sending the email with the quotes around the 'display
name' and the delivered email shows the correct display name:

	Patrick A. Guida, Duffy & Sweeney, LTD [ali-aba at ali-aba.org]

Versus the same email without the quotes around the display name:

	Patrick.A.Guida at bakerbotts.com

Do I need to go back to the list serve to get them to correct the format
of their 'From' email header, or is there an option in MailScanner that
should assume text before the <ali-aba at ali-aba.org> is a display name?

Thanks,
Donald
