(rfc822-addresses "scp@blanche.LANL>GOV (Stephen C. Pope)") went into a loop. A fix is to change line 288 of rfc822.el from ((looking-at "[][\000-\037\177-\377@;:\\.]") to ((looking-at "[][\000-\037\177-\377@;:\\.>]") There may well be a larger class of bugs in dealing with such buggy addresses (for characters other than #\>); however it's been a long time since I last looked at rfc822.el.
