To expand on this point: "firstname lastname <email address>" is, and 
should be recognized as, a valid email address.  Geary properly 
recognizes such addresses for Federico and me, so you've managed to 
find a rather subtle bug.  If you could report it 
(https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=geary), it'd be much 
appreciated.

Thanks,
