           Summary: kmail2 can't send reply to calendar event request
           Product: kmail2
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: divan at s-tainment.co.za


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.1) 
OS:                Linux

Can't send a reply to any calendar invite.
In a nut shell, kmail2 replies to this address:
<"LastName, FirstName" <flastname at example.com>>

it should reply to this address(I think):
"LastName, FirstName" <flastname at example.com>

It's simply adding extra brackets.

I would think this would be a quick and easy bug to fix so hopefully it makes
it for 4.7.3 and it's one less problem for kmail2.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
- I receive a calendar event invite.
- I click accept or deny, kmail2 then tries to send an email reply.

Actual Results:  
- It however gets stuck in my outbox as the smtp relay server doesn't allow an
invalid email address in the to field.
- Basically when I send an email to this address it can send but when replying
from a calendar event kmail2 adds extra brackets <> as per below example.

Expected Results:  
It sends the reply to the email recipients succesfully.

I have the latest stable kmail 4.7.2.

If I send via davmail locally I can capture the log of the error.
Note this happens with any SMTP server, not just davmail. See below details.
