The problem is the presence of the ":" in the parenthetical comment
following the mailbox. If I am reading the spec correctly this is not
allowed (the ":" and ";" are special characters). But it is relatively
common nonetheless.

I think the following version should take care of it. Try it for awhile
and see if any other problems arise.  If not I'll push it to master.
