Try RFCs 1958 and 2277, paying attention to the difference between
protocol elements and text.

Yes, using "LIST" a keyword in group syntax is not the most perfect
solution, but then we are not living in a perfect world.

I don't think we are in a position seriously to consider new syntax for
To:, Cc: and Reply-To.

Then why have you proposed such a change -- that's exactly what changing
non-protocol text to "a keyword" would do?

No, what I have proposed still falls withint the existing syntax of
<address>. Granted it is not the prettiest of solutions, it is still
better tnat no solution at all. You have a better one?
