Description

Seems quite common that user agents don't encode From: and Sender: fields properly. This means that they contain non ASCII characters. E.g. "From: Håkan Öster <[e-mail]>". It would be nice if Mime4j could handle these addresses without a parse error at least in non strict mode. Right now AddressListParser fails with a ParseException because it only allows ASCII characters.
