{Spam?} spaces or not when adding subscribers?

Hi Justin,
 
I have installed Dada Mail version 3.0.3 Stable.
First, I added some subscribers from the admin panel by using this format as shown in the admin panel:
 
Email Address, voornaam, achternaam
 
Please notice the spaces after the comma's.
 
Then I added some email addresses by using this format:
 
Email Address,voornaam,achternaam
 
So without the spaces.
 
This is the result in Outlook Express when I send the subscriber list to the owner:
(I have corrupted the email addresses and names for privacy purposes):
 
 
Apparently, the extra spaces are not removed and double quotes are added.
 
For those names I did not use spaces, the name is included in the email address, so the actual email address (when I click on it) is not correct. Both formats looks strange anyway in IE.
 
Google mail shows the right thing when no spaces are being used, apparently IE treats an email address followed by a comma as a whole.
 
Not sure how to handle this since there might be situations you want to keep such spaces, but an option in Dada to strip them would be nice as well.
