OTRS does not want to send email to address where local part starts with
underscore, i.e. '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' - there is invalid syntax it says.
The address is valid. Is this a bug or a feature? How can I make
OTRS pass such email addresses? Thanks in advance.

The regex that checks e-mail addresses is probably not entirely correct. Some mail regexes only check for @ and whether the part after the @ has a dot. A completely RFC-compliant regex is pretty large. See http://www.ex-parrot.com/~pdw/Mail-RFC822-Address.html for instance. Maybe OTRS could use the Email::Address perl module: http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?Email::Address

I don't know if this check can be turned off in OTRS. Otherwise the regex needs to be changed. You can file a bug report at http://bugs.otrs.org/
