bug#20318: 24.5; %N in message-citation-line-format

[Nicolas Graner <nicolas.graner@u-psud.fr>]

The %N specification in message-citation-line-format doesn't work when
replying to email while Gnus is not loader. When a real name and an
email address are present in the original message, it displays both,
instead of just the real name. This doesn't happen if Gnus is loaded.

Example starting from emacs -Q:

(setq message-citation-line-function 'message-insert-formatted-citation-line
      message-citation-line-format "%N writes:")
M-x rmail
r
C-c C-y



The first unread message in my mailbox had:

From: Hervé Le Tellier <herve.le.tellier@gmail.com>

The citation line inserted in the reply was:
Hervé Le Tellier <herve.le.tellier@gmail.com> writes:

but it should be:
Hervé Le Tellier writes:

The same happens when replying to any message which has both a real name
and an address in its "From" header.

Here is a patch that works for me:

! 		     (funcall (if (boundp gnus-extract-address-components)
  				  gnus-extract-address-components
  				'mail-extract-address-components)
  			      from)

      (let* ((data (condition-case ()

  				  gnus-extract-address-components
  				'mail-extract-address-components)
  			      from)


Hope this helps.
