unfortunately im not authorized to publish the whole headers and content, but as an example:

in headers:
To: ""Ing. Markéta Kleinová"' <x at xxx.xx>

view in the webmail or outlook
"Ing. Markéta Kleinová" <mailto:kleinova at pkvp.cz>

and it should be Ing. Markéta Kleinová

The problem is with From and To headers.
