I have the user 

fro"hlich

He tries to subscribe to a mailinglist, so he does

echo | qmail-inject [EMAIL PROTECTED]

He receives a confirmation request with 

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Reply-To:
+"mw-dir-sc.976052641.bajogknapkbddkofkdco-fro\"hlich=thales.memphis.edu"@thales
+.memphis.edu

When he presses `r' for reply, he is prompted with the address in the
From: field

To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Why? 

Nevertheless, I copy the address 
"mw-dir-sc.976052641.bajogknapkbddkofkdco-fro\"hlich=thales.memphis.edu"@thales..memphis.edu

in the To: field and press RET, but mutt just aborts (does not prompt
me with the Subject:). I think mutt removes the backslash from \", and
then it terms the address incorrect. 

To confirm this, I create the user fr"o"hlich, who is also doing

echo | qmail-inject [EMAIL PROTECTED]

He receives the confirmation request with 

Reply-To:
+"mw-dir-sc.976054041.enbpfcnbmdnkgjaimmpl-fr\"o\"hlich=thales.memphis.edu"@thal
+es.memphis.edu

when he presses `r' to reply, he is prompted with the following
address

"mw-dir-sc.976054041.enbpfcnbmdnkgjaimmpl-fr"o"hlich=thales.memphis.edu"@thales.memphis.edu
 

which is invalid.  So you see mutt removes the backslash from \".
Why?

Thx

Mate
