What did you do?

https://play.golang.org/p/SGqTDFa_wVA

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"net/mail"
)

func main() {
	m, err := mail.ParseAddress(`Pete(A nice \) chap) <pete(his account)@silly.test(his host)>`)
	fmt.Println(m, err)
}

What did you expect to see?

As much as I would like it not to be, I believe this is a valid address perf RFC 5322. It is included as an example in Appendix A.5 White Space, Comments, and Other Oddities https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5322#appendix-A.5

"Pete" <pete@silly.test> <nil>

What did you see instead?

<nil> mail: missing @ in addr-spec

In case it's useful or saves anyone time, I believe this is correct (but not exactly lovely). https://play.golang.org/p/3Qc9x6_d44t
