Stephen, Try something like the following and see if it makes a difference:
$Group$ + " <" + $Group$ + "[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" Perhaps the text just needs to be quoted. Ron -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Stephen Earl Sent: Monday, July 17, 2006 3:10 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Notify Filters and 'From' address All, I have some notify filters that appear to have 'changed' how they work since we patched upto patch 017 on ARS 6.3 On my form I have a field called 'Group' and in my filter notify action I have set the from address to be: $Group$ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Normally this should result in the 'from' address looking like: sa <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> which is a valid 'from' setting, however for some settings of 'Group' (namely: sa, ci or ei) instead of setting the 'From' field to: group <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> it just sets it to: sa Thus missing the actual email address. There are no error messages as such apart from when the email engine actually tries to send the message, then of course it errors as the 'from' is illegal. Now this doesn't happen for all groups only a few and I can't see what would cause it to be different... this worked fine upto patch 011, and now is broken :( also seems broken in ARS 7.0 patch 001 too :( Anyone got any ideas?
