EMAIL ADDRESS SINGLE QUOTES

[DCN]

MS Outlook adds single quotes to ny TO e-mail addresses
(e.g., '(e-mail address removed)') -- both when I copy and paste an
address, and when I review a sent e-mail. Why does it do
this, and how can I stop it, since it's causing problems
for some recepients.

 

[Roady]

It does this to distinguish the beginning and end of a name/e-mail address
for the end user (especially handy when there are spaces in names for
instance). Why (and in what way) do you think this is causing problems for
recipients?

 

[DNewman]

Mail addressed with single quotes (by Outlook), when
received by at least one recepient, is unrecognized and
directed to a default mailbox for the domain -- causing
delayed receipt and problems for the targeted recepient.
Any suggestions on what either the recepient or I can do?
