I don't think Mailman should be in the business of guessing how to
re-parse an email address. As I mentioned in another post in this
thread
(<http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2007-December/059534.html>),
the Python email.Utils.parseaddr() function returns the single quotes
as part of the parsed address. If this is a significant problem, I
think the email library is the place to address it.

Also, the issue can be easily avoided by putting the quoted address in
acceptable_aliases.
