You are correct, my apologies. We did not have Mail::Address installed and furthermore we have modified MIME::Lite due to a different bug we have experienced, which is causing us to execute extract_addrs(). Since I have made the modifications across the board and it has been a while since I made them, I had forgotten about the change.

Many thanks!
