It took me some time to refresh my bodystructure knowledge but after
looking at the code again I know why you are getting an error.
The "Colb >> \\Helga.Colbatz\\" part is causing an error. Because the
parseQuote function in the message class looks back for escape characters
it thinks the double quote is escaped. Probably I should look back one
character more and detect if the escape character is escaped and if yes,
then do start with slow parsing, which means iterate from start to end
through every character in the doublle quoted string and keeps track of
the number of escape characters.

Thanks for the report and I will take a look how I can fix this.
