If the sender of an email contains an (German) 'Umlaut' (like ä ö ü) a reply
will split the sender in two different addresses. Where the second part contains
the vaild e-mail address, the first on the opposite will produce an error, since
this is only a part of the whole thing.

The screenshot at http://www.oeae.ch/ThunderbirdBug.jpg shows the all three
important windows. On top left the main window of Thunderbird with the important
message marked. The Sender is "Jäger". In the middle the message opened in a own
window. Know the sender is "Caroline <cjaeger@student.ethz.ch>". In the front
the reply window with two different receipients: "Jäger" and "Caroline
<cjaeger@student.ethz.ch>". The forst of them of course will produce an error.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Reply to a message of a sender with a german umlaut in the (shown) name,
like: Jäger Caroline <cjaeger@env.ethz.ch>

Actual Results:  
The reply e-mail will be sent to two recepeints, where the first one is not a
vaild recipient of course.

Expected Results:  
Reply to a single person.
