Have you looked at the method I suggested?
It was sketched out since I didn't have it running
in SpamAssassin but rather on my reject ACL in Exim,
but the SpamAssassin version is included below....

While I understand the general warnings about
trying to do this naively, I would LOVE it if
any of the naysayers can find a reason why the
following would be likely to cause problems:
header __HM_USER To =~
/"\w.*"\s*<(herb|martin).*@.*learnquick.*>/i
header __HM_REALNAME To =~ /".*(herb|hm|martin|carol).*"\s*</i
meta HM_NAME_MISMATCH __HM_USER && (!__HM_REALNAME)
describe HM_NAME_MISMATCH Mail real name does not match username
score HM_NAME_MISMATCH 3 # try lowering from 3 to 2
Seriously, if there is a problem then it needs to be fixed
but it seems solid.
Only count the name missing IF there is a "quoted portion"
for real name, AND IF none of my names or alias appear there.
