Heirloom mailx and elder s-nail did do that (names.c:extract()):

  # </dev/null MAILRC=/dev/null s-nail-v14.8.0 -n -d -stest 'du,au'
  user = steffen, homedir = /home/steffen
  "/usr/sbin/sendmail" arguments: "sendmail" "-i" "--" "au" "du"
  # </dev/null MAILRC=/dev/null s-nail-v14.8.0 -n -d -stest du,au
  user = steffen, homedir = /home/steffen
  "/usr/sbin/sendmail" arguments: "sendmail" "-i" "--" "au" "du"

I changed it though since the parser is borked (can easily be
fooled) and will be replaced with an already written and tested
RFC 5322 parser.  (We now support a -T switch however, which
parses "like an email header"; through the new parser in the
future, though.)
