oops. sorry. ;-)

Hmmm, it _used to be_
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
"=?utf-8?B?xaB0xJtww6FuIE7Em21lYw==?= <stepnem@gmail.com>"
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
(is that what RFC822bis specifies?)
but was passed through `mail-decode-encoded-word-string':
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(mail-decode-encoded-word-string "=?utf-8?B?xaB0xJtww6FuIE7Em21lYw==?=
<stepnem@gmail.com>")
==> "Štěpán Němec <stepnem@gmail.com>"
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
and then passed on to `mail-header-parse-addresses'.
What is TRT here?
Should I call `mail-header-parse-addresses' _first_ and then
`mail-decode-encoded-word-string'?
Come to think of it, passing _email address_ through
`mail-decode-encoded-word-string' seems unnecessary...
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(mail-header-parse-addresses "=?utf-8?B?xaB0xJtww6FuIE7Em21lYw==?=
<stepnem@gmail.com>")
==> (("stepnem@gmail.com" . "=?utf-8?B?xaB0xJtww6FuIE7Em21lYw==?="))
(mail-decode-encoded-word-string "=?utf-8?B?xaB0xJtww6FuIE7Em21lYw==?=")
==> "Štěpán Němec"
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

... Or maybe I should keep the current order of processing and use
`mail-header-parse-address-lax'?
Thank you for your speedy and enlightening reply!
