When there is a double quote in one's user name, pine has to escape them, which 
seems rather ugly and it handles it in a similar manner when it's on an incoming 
message, (ie in the From: line).

To: "Jamie \"account 1\" Fifield" <aa001@landon.chebucto.ns.ca>

Pretty ugly, in the index listing, it appears as:

     1 May 13 Jamie "account 1"     (633) This is a test                       
 

Which is much better looking i think.
