A list admin of a mailman server I administrate brought this error to my attention when attempting to add an address that contained a forward slash in the local part(real address not provided for security reasons):
test/[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Hostile address (illegal characters) The admin pointed out that rfc 822 states that the / is permitted in the local part of an email address. I suppose that Mailman has it reasons for not permitting an address that contains a / but it would be nice to know what the reasons are to pass long to the admin. Can anyone provide any input on this?
