This is not a problem whether I want to have it sent to "[email-masked]",
or, "[email-masked]" (without the quotations).  No bracket ("<>")
is added.

>2) how to embed a comma in a custom header line.

I have tested this:

	Organization: "test,test,test"

and it did not get into multiple lines.  However, quotation marks are
kept in the final form (a bit annoying).  I wish there could be a better
solution.
