When destination addresses (TO, CC, BCC) are of the form
	v@x.y.z (v w)
fakemail's popen of the mail command fails with a shell syntax error due to the
parentheses around the (v w).  This can be fixed by enclosing the elements of
the command built using add_field in quotes.

If you wish, I will refine my current "quick fix" to be a reasonable patch.
