if the above string is what bugzilla is emitting exactly (look at the
source of the message to be sure) then please also consider submitting a
bug against bugzilla -- they are are misinterpreting RFC 2047 -- encoded
strings are expected to be separated from non-encoded strings by linear
whitespace.  the above string has no space between "=20?=" and
"<thomas", even though it should.
