hi, Tim,

in my case, i am putting RFC822('ish) e-mail addresses in a column of an
org-mode table. and, i want to extract them.
----
| oxymoron@example.com |
| Greg Oxymoron <oxymoron@example.com> |
| "Greg G. Oxymoron" <oxymoron@example.com> |
----
for the third row returns =Greg G. Oxymoron=, rather than my desired
="Greg G. Oxymoron" <oxymoron@example.com>=.
by the way, do you know the use case for the current behavior for
strings that start with a ="=? i couldn't find anything in the manual.
i wonder if maybe the existing parameter =inhibit-lisp-eval= (which, in
the path i am exercising, is non-nil) could also be used to not do the
check for a ="=? (maybe that's also a hack, but i think it would solve
my problem. :)
cheers, Greg
