 Most Microsoft Exchange systems are configured to format email addresses
 as {{{"Lastname, Firstname" <firstname.lastname at evilcorp.com>}}}. Notice
 how the quotation marks are placed so that the comma won't be treated as a
 separator between email addresses.

 CPSMailAccess fails to understand that. When displaying emails where email
 addresses are formatted like that (happens in From, To, etc. headers), it
 thinks {{{Lastname}}} is an email address and {{{Firstname
 <firstname.lastname at evilcorp.com>}}} is one.

 To sum up, it shouldn't treat a comma in quotation marks as an email
 address separator but as part of the real name. More specifically,
 CPSMailAccess/mailmessageview.py, _renderLinkedHeaderList needs to be
 adjusted.
