Well, I don't know that it should...

% if i try to set my header like:
%  From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (Will Yardley)

% instead of:
%  From: Will Yardley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

I'm curious about why you would care.  The two are functionally
equivalent, right?

I *think* that the latter form is preferred according to the RFC and so
mutt reformats whatever it gets into that uniform model.  It can certainly
take From: headers in a number of formats, but my vague recollection of
this discussion in the past is that it will write consistently.
