This is a result of misuse. 

Please see section 2.2 of the appropriate RFC: 
http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2822.html

if i understood correct from the rfc:

address can be (a.o.): [display-name] angle-addr
where display-name should be a dot atom, or
if not a dot atom, it should be a quoted string

and thus the call should be:
$send_status = mail('"test 1:2:3:4:5:6:7:8:9" <some@domain.net>', 'strange name 
test', 'hi')

correct?
think so, bec it works.

sorry about registering it as a bug.
i'm using a mailscript and expected it to work properly.
and thus again: expect the unexpected.

thanks, erik
