Thank you. You're right. Quotes are required. And they do show up in
some mail programs (like gmail when you view the message page as
opposed to the list of messages) but generally they don't  show up.

I'm pretty sure the quotes are required by the rfc (ex. from rfc2822):

A.1.2. Different types of mailboxes

   This message includes multiple addresses in the destination fields
   and also uses several different forms of addresses.

        Hi everyone.
        ----

   Note that the display names for Joe Q. Public and Giant; "Big" Box
   needed to be enclosed in double-quotes because the former contains
   the period and the latter contains both semicolon and double-quote
   characters (the double-quote characters appearing as quoted-pair
   construct).  Conversely, the display name for Who? could appear
   without them because the question mark is legal in an atom.  Notice
   also that [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] have no display names
   associated with them at all, and [EMAIL PROTECTED] uses the simpler
   address form without the angle brackets.
