Description:
------------
I want to use the RFC 2822 standard in the to address

User <user@example.com>

But under windows this gives an error, under linux it works fine.

It seems to add it's own < and > characters under windows.


Reproduce code:
---------------
When I try this under windows :

mail("User <user@example.com>",$subject, "", $headers);

I get this error : 

Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 501 Syntax error, parameters in command "RCPT TO:<User <user@example.com>>" unrecognized or missing in

It seems to add it's own <> characters !!??

If I run the same script under Linux it works fine !?

Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions.  Due to the volume
of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not
a bug.  The support channels will be able to provide an explanation
for you.

Thank you for your interest in PHP.
