New submission from tom de wulf <dewulfm...@gmail.com>:

Probably a parsing bug in email.utils.parseaddr.

How to recreate:

>>> import email.utils
>>> test = 'Subject: I am a bug [Random]\r\nFrom: someone 
>>> <some@email.address>\r\n\r\n'
>>> email.utils.parseaddr(test)
('', 'I')
>>> email.utils.parseaddr(test.replace('[', '').replace(']',''))
('someone', 'some@email.address')

Expected behaviour: no need to remove the []'s
