Do you (or anyone else) have any idea how I would go about making this
modification? There are hundreds of messages being rejected because of it,
and some users arn't happy about my suggestion to upgrade to a new client.
If I can't get this solved I might have to go back to sendmail for a while.
:(
I would imagine a fix couldn't be that hard, but I don't know much about C
at all.
Thanks,
Adam

I see this occasionally. The problem ist that some idiotic mailprograms
don't remove " " or even a "\n" at the end of an email address.
(The "\n" probably happens when the user inputs the address in a
GUI window and "incorrectly" presses <enter>).
These emails are seen by qmail-smtpd as
RCPT TO: <[EMAIL PROTECTED] >
or
MAIL FROM: <[EMAIL PROTECTED] >
and rejected.
And to answer the question:
- no, I don't know of any patch, but it shouldn't be hard to modify
qmail-smtpd if you really think you have to.
- I personally wouldn't do it. The client is broken.
