** Description changed:

  Hi,
  
  Noticed this error just recently on Feisty and continues with Gutsy.
  When I recieve an email to my yahoo mailbox (FYI from an Exchange
  Server, not sure if relevent) and download it via Pop into KMail it will
  be of  the format:
  
  "Lastname, Firstname" <username at maildomain.tld>
  
  In my case the Firstname contains an E-grave or a é. Inside the Yahoo
  interface the Quote marks remain, when downloaded into KMail they are
  stripped. Another use who has a only fully US-English characters in
  their name the quotes remain, so it has to be the é causing the issue.
  
  Problem is when they are stripped I end up with 2 people in the reply
  addresses:
  
  Firstname <username at maildomain.tld>
- Lastname at my_machine_name
+ Lastname at my_default_domain_from_KMail_Send_Options
  
- It actually adds my current machines name on the end of the Firstname
- with an AT symbol attached.
+ It actually adds my current kmail default domain on the end of the
+ Lastname with an AT symbol.
  
  If I try reply in Yahoo's web front end then there is no issue. If there
  is anything else you need let me know (SMTP headers etc.)
  
  Thanks,
  
  Félim
