Summary: rfc822.Addrlist class fails on long addr

Initial Comment:
The Addrlistclass.getaddrlist uses recursion algorithm,
unfortunately on some _very_ large address fields it
exceeds the maximum recursion.

Please provide attach a test case.  It's unlikely that
this'll get fixed before Python 2.2 since it fixing it
probably requires a rewrite.

I wonder if this could use generators now?  Can you provide
a patch?
