Research direction
No source files or tests are named. Reproduce the issue in the Mail app using the listed forwarding and recipient-search steps, then trace the contact-search and recipient-selection entry points. Done means selecting a result containing an @ no longer adds the search text as a recipient and the message sends successfully.
