Compose window does not properly handle escaped quotes in To address

An address of the form "Adrian \"The Man\" Hosey"

An address of the form "Adrian \"The Man\" Hosey" is legal by RFC2822 Section 3.2.5, but Imp has trouble with it. If you attempt to reply to a message like that, it passes the address validator, but it tries to send to "" (i.e. a blank) and the message will be bounced by the MTA.

One is in Mail::RFC822, in _validateQuotedString(). This regex: return !(preg_match('/(.)[\x0D\\\\"]/', $qstring, $matches) && $matches[1] != '\\'); does not sucessfully distinguish between "Adrian "The Man" Hosey" (illegal) and "Adrian \"The Man\" Hosey" (legal). Rather than continue to torture the regex, I added this right before the regex: $qstring_ary = explode('\"', $qstring); $qstring = implode('', $qstring_ary); pressing out any \" pairs, because we know they're okay. The other bug is in Horde::MIME, in _rfc822Encode(). This line: return '"' . str_replace('"', '\\"', str_replace('\\', '\\\\', $str)) . '"'; doesn't recognize that a \" pair inside a quoted-string doesn't need to be escaped again.
