Mail Component: Character "|" in recipient addresses causes failure -------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: CAMEL-2067 URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/CAMEL-2067 Project: Apache Camel Issue Type: Bug Components: camel-mail Affects Versions: 1.6.1 Reporter: slad It looks like there is minor bug in regex used in MailBinding.java, it causes "|" to act as delimiter, splitting email address into 2 parts. For ex: Using email address as - first|l...@test.com causes it to split into two parts: 1) first 2) l...@test.com "|" is acceptable character in email as per wikipedia [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Email_address]. I did not bother to read RFC specification. Here is snippet of code causing issue: private static void appendRecipientToMimeMessage(MimeMessage mimeMessage, String type, String recipient) throws MessagingException { // we support that multi recipient can be given as a string seperated by comma or semi colon String[] lines = recipient.split("[,|;]"); for (String line : lines) { Regex above should either be "[,;]" or ";|," Also, having email addresses separate out by , or ; seems to be issue as it can be part of name. ex: "firstName, I like comma <first.l...@test.com>" is valid. Above code will still cause failure for such messages. Can camel support addresses as List/Array rather than comma delimited string?
