Did I misunderstand? I though you were talking about ${address:
No, I didn't misunderstand. This is what you wrote:
Hmmm, would it hurt too much if ${address: ...} always called
parse_extract_address()? Obviously it causes a little bit of overhead
when it wasn't needed.
As far as match_address goes, I don't see why one would ever want to
supply a full RFC2822 address.

I don't think I really mind, though "addresslist" is already an Exim
technical term, so might be misunderstood. I had considered something
like "regularize_address_list", but that's too long, and
"fix_address_list" is vague.
