#7484: no more <> around addresses in VRFY or EXPN
The RFC doesn't say that they are allowed; apparently many mailers accept
them, but not postfix. Contributions to this patch were made by Felipe Cruz
and Catalin Iacob.
The changeset also adds additional indirect tests for quoteaddr (null address
and IDNA-encoded address).
