== Project Details ==
After running the [http://mxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/mailnews/mime/test/unit/test_nsIMsgHeaderParser1.js test] with additional test cases, I found that the trailing spaces given in the email address are not discarded when the email address is concatenated with the full name of the contact. For example, if the name of the contact is John Doe and the email address of the contact is "jdoe@example.com " (minus the quotes)(take note of the trailing space), the result would give "John Doe <jdoe@example.com >" (minus the quotes)(including the trailing space).
 
My take on this is to remove the trailing spaces before the result is returned from the [http://mxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/mailnews/mime/src/nsMsgHeaderParser.cpp#836 msg_quote_phrase_or_addr(...)]. I plan on using the macro, [http://mxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/mailnews/mime/src/nsMsgHeaderParser.cpp#61 TRIM_WHITESPACE(...)], to do this.
== Project News ==
[https://bug286760.bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=413868 0.2 Release]: In the end, I did not use the TRIM_WHITESPACE() macro, because of my small understanding of how it works. Just a little bit of code is added to the msg_quote_phrase_or_addr() function. This bit of code removes trailing spaces from the address given. However, I might be at fault, because this code might not be allowed due to some RFC regulations.
