I believe the cause is thus: i.am.a.subdomain..microsoft.com That .. has a very clear, easy to see NULL entry in between the two dots... So we need to either: not do lookups on URIs with .. or we need to massage them. My recommendation is to reduce multiple dots to one dot for anything that ends in a TLD. Or we could just invalidate the URI as not being usable from more than one dot. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
