[issue38232] empty local-part in addr_spec displayed incorrectly

[Andrei Troie]

New submission from Andrei Troie <andrei.troie at bbc.co.uk>:

Given an (RFC-legal) email address with the local part consisting of a quoted empty string (e.g. 'Nobody <""@example.org>'), when I call the 'addr_spec' property, the result no longer includes the quoted empty string (so, in this case, addr_spec would return '@example.org').
