An alternative to the mailparse_rfc822_parse_addresses() function is Mail_RFC822::parseAddressList() from Pear:

http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.mail.mail.php

It parses the string and returns a structured tree of data. Returns a pear_error object if the string is not valid.

Example:

require_once "PEAR.php";
require_once "Mail/RFC822.php";

$addr= "Hi <hi@world.org>";

$res= Mail_RFC822::parseAddressList($addr);
if (PEAR::isError($res)) die("NOT VALID: " . $res->getMessage() . "\n");
echo "OK. Data:\n";
print_r($res);

If for some reason you cannot compile mailparse into your install of PHP, you will also find an extremely similar function in the Mail_MIME PEAR class, specifically in mimeDecode.php.

<?php
// input: My Test Email <some.test.email@somewhere.net>

function get_displayname_from_rfc_email($rfc_email_string) {
// match all words and whitespace, will be terminated by '<'
$name = preg_match('/[\w\s]+/', $rfc_email_string, $matches);
$matches[0] = trim($matches[0]);
return
$matches[0];
}
// Output: My Test Email

function get_email_from_rfc_email($rfc_email_string) {
// extract parts between the two parentheses
$mailAddress = preg_match('/(?:<)(.+)(?:>)$/', $rfc_email_string, $matches);
return
$matches[1];
}
// Output: some.test.email@somewhere.net
?>
