You get a 550 because that's not a valid To: header. Whatever MUA you're using is broken and is using an RFC1522 UTF-8 encoding for things that don't need to be encoded, and then failing to put the encoded bit in quotes to protect it from being parsed as an address. > (Why the encoding?

Debbugs doesn't encode things in such a broken fashion: X-Loop: [email protected] Subject: Bug#530796: xine-lib: FTBFS on Hurd Reply-To: "Marc =?UTF-8?Q?Dequ=C3=A8nes?= (Duck)" <[email protected]>, [email protected] Don Armstrong -- She was alot like starbucks.
