[bug-mailutils] angle brackets always on

$ mail -s bla address@hidden < /dev/null
Makes
To: <address@hidden>
Why are angle brackets mandatory here?
Looks not professional.
Let's look at what
$ mutt -s bla address@hidden < /dev/null
creates differently:
To: address@hidden

Mime stuff, OK perhaps always on,
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Disposition: inline

Hmmm, User-Agent vs. X-stuff:
User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.13 (2006-08-11)
X-Mailer: mail (GNU Mailutils 1.0)

P.S., on the man page
DESCRIPTION
       GNU mail -- the standard /usr/bin/mail interface

Well, aren't you going to mention there that it sends and receives
electronic mail?
