 In [changeset:"53900" 53900]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="53900"
 Mail: Prevent the last character of names in  “From” headers from being
 trimmed.

 When extracting the email and name from a “From” header, the last
 character of the name is incorrectly trimmed when a space is not included
 between the name and the opening `<`.

 Though the space is required for the header to be compliant with RFC5322
 (see https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5322#section-3.4), the absence of a
 space can be ignored here. PHPMailer accepts the name and email as
 separate parameters and constructs the header correctly later on.

 Props hakanca, mikehansenme, SergeyBiryukov, kovshenin, mattyrob,

 Fixes #19847.
