Hello David
It's OK. Even if xmail supports quotation, still it's not enough for mail users. I guess many xmail admins in japan wants to send or reply to these address without quote. That is not match with RFC and your policy. There is no problem if I could change the local-part validation by optional switch or modifying source. Thank you. sw20 [xmail] Re: email address validation (RFC2822...)

That would require a clusterfsck of changes via escpaing/unescaping, due to the fact that characters like '"' and '\t' can screw up the TAB files format, and other file system special characters could now appear in the name. The changes above is a "sunny day" change, that waits for hell to break lose. - Davide - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
