Of these, only ~1060 reached my maillet. The rest landed in james-2.1/apps/james/var/mail/error. 'strings *.Respository.FileObjectStore' reveals that most of these contain javax.mail.internet.AddressException for one reason or another (illegal whitespace in local part, illegal character in local part, local part ends with '.', ...), often in the From: address rather than the To: address meaning that, in principle at least, delivery could still be performed. I don't have an immediate suggestion about how to fix this; presumably JavaMail's MimeMessage constructor is choking, which can't easily be fixed. Encapsulation as an application/octet-stream inside a failure message to the postmaster may be a useful workaround. --------------------------------------------------------------------- JIRA INFORMATION: This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
