An address of the form 

"Adrian \"The Man\" Hosey" <alh at indiana.edu>

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.
