[imp] From line creation? (2.2.4)

[Marius Strom]

Right, but that could easily be evaded by changing my From address to:
marius@alpha1.net" ; <evil command here>.

There need to be some other heuristics (of which I don't possess,
unfortunately) to validating email addresses..  Perhaps a regex search
of through the email address of [^a-zA-Z0-9.@+] characters?
