Patch to add the "+" symbol to the allowed characters. This applies to v 1.26.2

Some email addresses, most notably mailing lists, have a "+" in the email address (Example: listname+subscribe@domain.tld), but sendmail only allows alphanumeric and "_-.@".
I have attached a patch that adds the "+" symbol to this list.
