How do you think you should parse this header according to RFC 2822?
From: Joe \(Joseph\) Bloggs <joe(_at_)joe(_dot_)com>
My reading of RFC 2822 says that this is three "tokens", 'Joe', '\'
and an unfinished comment '(Joseph) Bloggs <joe(_at_)joe(_dot_)com>'
As far as I can see you can have quoted pairs like '\)' in comments,
but not outside comments, so the '\' before the '(' isn't a quoting
'\' but a real '\'. Outside comments you use " characters for quoting.
Is this right, or am I missing something?
AFAICS, syntactically correct formations of the line could be:
From: "Joe (Joseph) Bloggs" <joe(_at_)joe(_dot_)com>
or
From: (Joe \(Joseph\) Bloggs) joe(_at_)joe(_dot_)com
or even
From: Joe (\(Joseph\)) Bloggs <joe(_at_)joe(_dot_)com>
