 Where are they specifying this address?  You see, sendmail has the
 (bad) habit of accepting RFC822 addresses in places where only an
 RFC821 address should be found.

Our user put it in the To: address box of their MS outlook mail client and I
did it from command line as well.

Qmail doesn't parse that address.  MS outlook does.  If it's handing
the wrong thing to qmail, point the finger at MS.

  and I did it from command line as well.

Running qmail-inject?  Qmail-inject doesn't support RFC822 addresses
on its command line.

How can a user put comments into rcpt to address

2001-06-08 Thread K. F. Yim - Netvigator

My users previously put comments with his recipient address. e.g.
[EMAIL PROTECTED](comments). It worked for sendmail type system for message
handling.

Now he is complaining that whenever he puts (comments) with the recipient
email address, qmail bounces.

How can I overcome this problem.
