Hello together,

if you set a full name in IMP like "a.something", the full from line  
will look like "a.something <mail at addr.com>" without quotes around the  
full name.
IMP is then unable to send the message as the validation in pear's  
MIME package fails -> validateAtom() thinks the dot is not allowed.

I quickly checked RFC 822 and I think validateAtom is right on this one.
Attached patch activates the encoding for the ".", too.

Enjoy,
Thomas
