----------------------------------------

I never saw this kind of comment in a real mail. What MUAs creates a similar header?

> Back in the old days a FROM line did look like this:
> From: jerry@eagle.ATT.COM (Jerry Schwarz)
> So the name is included in the "comment". 
> See http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1036.html
> There are still some MUA's which use this "syntax". It would be nice if this would be respected and good get retrieved via Mailbox.getName();
