Hi Andrew,

I just tested writing a mail from SOGo webmail (4.1.0 in this case) to a fake version of my private account elsewhere, having inserted an apostrophe '. My private server rightfully refuses the (invalid) destination address - it seems SOGo does everything correctly here and hands through the apostrophe exactly as I would expect.

Trying to replicate the problem, doing the same with both the forward and backward tick ´` (single quotation marks or accent over blank, or whatever you call them), the same happens, SOGo hands through those mails and the destination server then refuses - the forward tick for "invalid postbox", the backtick as "restricted characters in address", and the non-delivery mail quotes the refused target address including the superfluous characters.

So it seems (my) SOGo 4.1.0 works correctly. But there may be other parties involved: Usually SOGo hands off the mail to a local running exim (or postfix....), which then forwards the mail as applicable. There may be a different mail path between roundcube and SOGo, depending on your local configuration.

Can you find some relevant lines in the mail server logs? In exim case and on Debian(ish) Linuxes, /var/log/exim4/mainlog would be the place to investigate.

Also having details on the software version involved and perhaps the relevant parts of the SOGO config may be helpful.

Best regards

Anselm

Hi

We are having issues with a particular email address which has a ‘ in its email address. Such as Dano’rou...@gmail.com

When the email is sent from SOGo, it removes the ‘ from the email address, so the email is actually sent to danorou...@gmail.com <mailto:danorou...@gmail.com> and therefore fails (ie bounces). Interestingly, when I access the server via Roundcube and send, this does not happen, so its SOGo

Has anyone had any experience of this?
