Ah! I knew I forgot something. Now I have another incoming filter to redirect emails with "Viezla"[sic] in the "To" line past the inbox to the appropriate folder :)

Goodness. Do you get many mails that put the "sic" in the headers?

The [sic] was specifically *outside* the quotes, though even inside surely anything in square brackets, and any use of sic, is understood to not be in the original unless specified otherwise[1]? Is that what you meant?

[1] Though I don't know how you *would* write a quotation involving someone's use of sic, you would normally append [sic], but in the circumstances that might be confusing :)
