Thunderbird adding double quotes around local part of email address

I have an email contact who uses alias emails to include team members as CC. Such an alias can have the form 

  !wawProdAIProjects@domainsample.com

However, the "!" in the local part seems to cause Thunderbird to modify the email address by adding double quotes around the local part: 

  "!wawProdAIProjects"@domainsample.com

While both versions seem to be legitimate, my contact's incoming mail server considers the "modified" version with the double quotes as "undeliverable".

So now I am wondering if and how I can stop Thunderbird from adding those double quotes? Any ideas?

Thanks a lot!

Thomas
