Hello, if one accesses the $local_part variable, the result is maybe lower cased but unquoted if quoting was necessary/used in the address. Therefor it is necessary to use ${quote_local_part:...} if a new address is to be constructed from $local_part.
${local_part:<string>} is _not_ removing quoting. " ${local_part:<string>} The string is interpreted as an RFC 2822 address and the local part is extracted from it. If the string does not parse successfully, the result is empty. " does not mention quoting, but as an "RFC 2822 address" may include quoting, I would expect it to be removed here if neccessary, especially as there is no unquote operator. Shall I enter a bug report?
