Microsoft email software (in particular Outlook and Exchange) is not based
on Internet Standards, but rather has had support for Internet Standards
added on afterwards. It has a habit of translating messages from standard
syntax (comma to separate addresses, angle brackets to wrap them, and
double inverted commas for quoting) into a non-standard syntax
(semicolons, square brackets, and apostrophes).
