Hi Phil,

While you're on the job... :-(

I've occasionally had emails arrive that give errors with Readmail, though I've 
always suspected they were malformed emails, and maybe deliberately so by 
spammers.  But tonight I tried to register with Etsy (see: http://www.etsy.com/ 
) and I got the error with their confirmation email - and again when I asked 
them to re-send it.  So I've a repeatable pattern here.

I first get an alert saying this...

    parse-email-addrs expected data argument of type: string none
    Near: [data/to: parse-email-addrs data/to 
        all [multiple data/cc: parse-email-addrs data/cc]
    ]
    Where: import-email

then another one saying just this...

    invalid email data - data written to

followed a little while later by Readmail crashing with this error...

    ** Script Error: gi_100 has no value
    ** Where: fn-get-mail-info
    ** Near: alert fn-gl gi_100
    return 0

Note that if you (or anyone else) wants to try a Readmail test register with 
Etsy, that they only allow one user-name per email address - and that the 
user-name will be the name of your shop there, if you ever open one...  (Well, 
you never know, if you're an artist...)

Any thoughts on this?

(Oh, and that was with both 4.14.9 and 4.14.14.  I thought the upgrade might've 
fixed it, but it didn't - just stopped me sending emails...  I've not looked 
into the latter yet though, so you can safely ignore it for now.  4.14.9 is 
still working for me.)
