My reading of RFC5321 seems to indicate that "user@1.2.3.4" is NOT a
valid address.  It should instead be written as "user@[1.2.3.4]"

RFC5321 covers envelope addresses.  RFC5322 covers header addresses
and also suggests that address literals need to be written as [1.2.3.4]
rather than 1.2.3.4.

David.
