Hi,

I got a message with Header:

From: =?windows-1257?Q?Renata_Tverkien=EB_\\_National_Hotel?= <reservation@nationalhotel.lt>

Apple Mail reads this header as

Renata Tverkien&#279; \ National Hotel <reservation@nationalhotel.lt>

While the MIME E-mail parser seems to fail to parse it and returns the raw header.

According to RFC 2822 escaped characters (\CHAR) can only appear in phrases that are quoted, which is not the case.

I may see what I can do to tolerate cases like this but still it is a syntax error.
