It will perform exactly as 1.93 did.  This is non-optimal, but rewriting
the address parser is not in the cards for a 1.9x release.  (I get the
feeling I've said this before.)  My 1.95 development stuff has much better
bad address handling; I can easily add a check to make sure there is
something before the first @ sign in a stripped address.

I am not certain that this address is even legal rfc822, but something
tells me that it might just be OK.  I don't have rfc822 in front of me at
the moment, so I won't comment further.
