As I understand it, this format which includes the names, brackets and 
whitespace is RFC822 compliant 
[http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc0822.txt?number=822] .    If you want it to 
accept the format above, will need an RFC822 compliant parser like the 
Perl module, although your regex seems to work ok for the most common 
format.

I would recommend searching for a reasonable sample of RFC822 compliant 
addresses and run them through, or study examples such as PEAR Mail's 
RFC822.php [http://cvs.php.net/co.php/pear/Mail/Mail/RFC822.php?r=1.18].
