        BBDB keeps wanting to make this guy's name "Feb", apparently
        thinking the date entry is a name.

Well, yes, that's what the phrase before the <address> bit is usually
used for.

This "From:" line strikes me as utterly bizzarre; why does this person
do this strange thing?  Is there, perhaps, some mail system or
inter-system gateway that does this routinely?  Do you consider it a
BBDB bug that it does not plan for this?  Was there some way you
thought BBDB ought to deal more effectively with this?
