there was a heated exchange a while back on header-people on the point you raised. It got started off with complaints about having to quote names which used middle initials (and a period) as the phrase. You're right, if you want to used a rout-addr, you should put a 'phrase' in front. Thus if you want to construct a path for a reply from header information, you would be forced to insert 'phrase'. Normally this is a person's first&last name, but I suppose one could put in something like The following is a route address <route-addr> ******
