Quoting shell variables is prudent. I.e., 

     cat ... -F ./mymuttrc "$myline"

Those quotes seem wierd. 
I would _remove_ the quotes from test.adr, 
or put them around _just_ the names. I.e.,: 

   My friend <fr@example.com>
   My enemy <en@example.com>
   Your friend <yf@example.com>

or

   "My friend" <fr@example.com>
   "My enemy" <en@example.com>
   "Your friend" <yf@example.com>

I don't know if this is related to your problem. 
Of course, someone else will have a solution which 
will make your shell script moot.
