Comment:
`name-addr` like other message headers has line length limit (see
[https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2822#section-2.1.1 RFC 2822]) on the other
hand it cannot contain CR and LF newline characters because they will be
vulnerable for header injection attacks (see
[https://bugs.python.org/issue39073 issue39073]). As far as I'm aware
there is not much we can do to keep it safe and allowed for the `name-
addr` longer than 78 chars.
