I suppose that the parser only accepts an addr-spec and not complete
addresses with comments. I really really hope that this will not be
changed, because the purpose of abuse-mailbox is to help stupid people
who write simple-minded autocomplaints scripts, and asking them to
implement a full RFC 2822 parser is a recipe for troubles.
