That did the trick. Thanks Howie.

You should try turning off auto address fixup in the POST Server and that should prevent iMS from altering the email address.

HTH,

Subject: [iMS] address format





In addition to using cold fusion and the cfx tag, some of our servers
also use relay to send out mail. The servers that use relay like to put
the email address in the format; user+AEA-domain.com (First Last). iMS
subsequently puts braces (<>) around this text and then when you try to
reply to that message using Outlook or Netscape (the only clients I've
tried it with) the email address is malformed (netscape likes to put
quote marks right in front of the +AEA- and leaves everything else as is)
and you get a no such user error.

When these same emails are relayed using a standard SMTP server (Merak
mail) it leaves off the <> and everything works just fine.

Is this an acceptable format for an email address? From what I could
understand in RFC 822 the parentheses are used for a comment and the
text inside should be ignored, is this correct?
