A small wrapper around email-addresses, an RFC 5322 email address parser.

Create val
import { parseAddressList } from "https://esm.town/v/std/parse_email";

console.log(parseAddressList('Steve <steve@val.town>, tom@val.town'));

Should output:

    parts: {
      name: {
        name: "display-name",
        tokens: "'Steve ",
        semantic: "'Steve",
