We encountered this error recently, whilst testing the maximum length
of the "To:" field, (we were making some configuration changes).

When we entered a "To:" field that was deliberately too long, we sometimes
received the bounced email with the error you've encountered.

Specifically, in our tests the To: field was:

"a very long quoted part ..... ie: more 200 chars" <[email protected]>

Perhaps this, (or something like it), is corrupting the From: field in your
case.

Hope this helps,
