User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64; rv:54.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/54.0 Build ID: 20170628075643 Steps to reproduce: Receiving of an e-mail with multiple recipients but a malformed TO header field. The recipients are separated by a space instead of a comma. Actual results: Thunderbird displays them as: "alice@example.com bob"@example.com instead of alice@example.com bob@example.com or even better parsing the space as a comma and showing them fully correct. Expected results: Show it either broken as it is, or put the comma where it belongs.
