Description Nick Clemens (kidclamp) 2021-07-13 13:20:03 UTC 
When a library enters their branch address they are constrained to the format:

user@domain.com

Some libraries would like to add a display name to aid users on the other end in recognizing their emails:

Your Public Library <<library@county.gov>>

Our email validation routine should be expanded to allow this format
Comment 1 Nick Clemens (kidclamp) 2021-07-13 13:22:46 UTC 
Format:
<<Your public library>> library@place.org
Comment 2 Katrin Fischer 2021-07-13 14:19:35 UTC 
Hm, we have been using "branch name <email@something.org>" in the past by adding it to the database directly, but I am a little worried that will implode in newer versions with the changes for adding STMP configs.

Also - this is a duplicate ;)
