Name with a dot causes Spamassassin's FROM_EXCESS_BASE64 to fire #4

@mariancerny

Description

@mariancerny

Setting $message->from to "hokuspokus.cz <[email protected]>" causes the following header to be generated:

From: =?UTF-8?B?aG9rdXNwb2t1cy5jeg==?= <[email protected]>

This however causes Spamassassin to fire the rule FROM_EXCESS_BASE64=0.979, which means "From: base64 encoded unnecessarily"
