Ok, but I don't know what fixed means in these particular cases.
Actually the problem when we have a quote in a name is: Is this a
delimiter or is this an ascii char?

Currently the problem is solved by saying : it's an ascii char
unless there is two quotes aroung all the name (modulo minor
things). So if I write:

--to='"Jane, Kararina" Doe <jdoe@xxxxxxxxxxx>'

they are considered characters. Which means that this is
different than:

--to='"Jane, Kararina Doe" <jdoe@xxxxxxxxxxx>'

Is this expected?
