I'm pretty sure the quotes are required by the rfc (ex. from rfc2822): 

A.1.2. Different types of mailboxes

   This message includes multiple addresses in the destination fields
   and also uses several different forms of addresses.

        Hi everyone.
        ----

   Note that the display names for Joe Q. Public and Giant; "Big" Box
   needed to be enclosed in double-quotes because the former contains
   the period and the latter contains both semicolon and double-quote
   characters (the double-quote characters appearing as quoted-pair
   construct).  Conversely, the display name for Who? could appear
   without them because the question mark is legal in an atom.  Notice
   also that jdoe at example.org and boss at nil.test have no display names
   associated with them at all, and jdoe at example.org uses the simpler
   address form without the angle brackets.
