Hi,

I just received an e-mail from someone with several Cc addresses in the form

"Lastname, Firstname" <[e-mail]>

where some of the Lastnames contained german Umlauts (ä,ö,ü,...). 
When replying with a reply all (I guess a normal reply has the same problem)
these addresses where not parsed proberly, each of these addresses was 
split into two parts and made two sepearate Cc addresses, one as 

  Lastname

and the other as 

  Firstname <[e-mail]>



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Send yourself an email, use Sender or Cc addresses of the form 
   "Lastname, Firstname" <[e-mail]>
   but include a german Umlaut (äöüÄÖÜß) in the Lastname. 
2. Read the mail and press "Reply" or "Reply all"
3. Check the address list in the generated mail window

Actual Results:  
Address split into two parts

Expected Results:  
Address not split, but used as it is.
