That's easy to configure, by filtering (decoded) addresses through
the unquote format function,

    $ fmttest -address -format "%(unquote(decode{text}))" '"Anthony J. Bentley" 
<address@hidden>'
    Anthony J. Bentley <address@hidden>

If you're using the default format files such as %nmhetcdir%/mhl.headers,
you could hack them.  Or better, customize your own and use -format.

I think that would be the best solution.  Any objection?
