When replying to an email from an exchange user the reply to address is:
 
"Smith, Joe" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
 
When sending the message I get a script prompt that says:
 
"The following email address is not recognized: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please check the format of the address."
 
Basically Imail is confused by thinking that the comma in the person's name is a comma to separate multiple email addresses. This is causing my users to no be able to reply to any of their professors. Is there a fix to this mess?
 
My temporary fix was to replace a line in ComposeMsg.aspx in the _javascript_ Startup() function as follows:
 
Change this:
document.getElementById("txtTo").value = document.getElementById("hdnTo").value;
   
To this:
 document.getElementById("txtTo").value = document.getElementById("hdnTo").value.replace(/\"[^>]*[^>]+\"/ig,"")
 
My fix just removes all names between quotes and leaves the email address behind.
 
This:
"Smith, Joe" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
 
becomes:
 
Please tell me there is a better fix in the works. My users are going berzerk on me!
