I want to type service@somecompany.com into mail composition's to-field.
After typing service, TB correctly suggests
service >> IKEA SERVICE-CENTER <IKEA-SERVICE.DE1@MEMO.IKEA.COM>
However, when I press AltGr+@ to get service@..., TB wrongly outputs
IKEA SERVICE-CENTER <IKEA-SERVICE.DE1@MEMO.IKEA.COM>@
In other words, I cannot enter service@somecompany.com straightforwardly without TB messing it up.

Actual Results:
