>To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], John Doe/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
I don't think I've seen this before (with the forward slash), and it's causing some problems with a custom .exe for auto-responses. The client claims this is "RFC-821 compliant". Not sure if it is, or even if that is a current/standard RFC.
Can anyone shed some light on this? I imagine we will end up supporting it because it's not that much work. I just want to know the real deal. Thanks!
I can't find anything in RFC821 that allows this. The "/" character isn't defined there. That means that it is the same as if they sent the E-mail to "To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], John [EMAIL PROTECTED]".
I would suggest asking which section of RFC821 discusses that format (or gives any special treatment to the "/" character).
