unknown token

I am seeing the following in my log after restarting milter-greylist:

milter-greylist: unknown token "<" line 123, skipping
milter-greylist: dump error at line 123: syntax error
milter-greylist: unknown token "@" line 123, skipping

I tracked it down to this in the database:

208.75.123.183 <@in.constantcontact.com> <user@...> 1431206771 # 2015-05-09 17:26:11
208.75.123.182 <@in.constantcontact.com> <user@host.com> 1435095419 AUTO # 2015-06-23 17:36:59

and I further tracked that down to this incoming message:

milter-greylist: t49MS9u1017485: addr = ccm230.constantcontact.com[208.75.123.230], from = <@in.constantcontact.com>, rcpt =

The message falls into the greylist and then when it finally comes through, it is rejected because it's on one of the black lists. However, it seems wrong that milter-greylist would blindly put this (<@in.constantcontact.com>) into the database and not be able to read the line it wrote itself.
