In your COPY you have fields and in the CSV file you have five.
Are you looking at the correct file?
See how the email and the company aren't into two "?
Have no idea what you are trying to say.
hiddenemail@xxxxxxxxxxx looks like a correct email to me.
Maybe if you show what the data is in the table?
*What I need is:*
"","","hiddenemail@xxxxxxxxxxx
<mailto:hiddenemail@xxxxxxxxxxm >","","John Wayne"
I thought that by putting QUOTE the COPY would do that?
Is there any way I can put the " into those fields?
Cheers
Patrick

Perhaps you mean you want to quote of all strings? For that you use FORCE QUOTE.
eg:
COPY (SELECT
name_first
name_last,
email,
company
FROM
clients
)
TO '/var/lib/pgsql/test1.csv' DELIMITER ','
csv HEADER QUOTE '"';
COPY (SELECT
name_first
name_last,
email,
company
FROM
clients
)
TO '/var/lib/pgsql/test1.csv' DELIMITER ','
csv HEADER QUOTE '"';
FORCE QUOTE name_first, name_last, email, company;
Please RTFM
