I just checked the mail I sent as first response -- and my local Sent
mail does not have the "; <email>" part anymore. So it seems, Evolution
silently dropped this? :-/

IMHO this should be filed as a bug, only if this is Evos fault. I
personally don't know, if the semicolon is valid at all. However,
dropping this *without* noticing the user is bad.

Maybe the mail hackers or anyone knowing the relevant RFC by heart can
shed some light?
