Davide,

I have had this few times now.
The users are using Outlook 2000 and their contact has a space after the
address.
When they send to the contact, the mail bounces as undeliverable.

err -40
Invalid server address

excerpt from bounce:
Mail From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Rcpt To:   <[EMAIL PROTECTED] >
Server:    <destination.com > [destination.com ]

So far I have been telling them to fix their address book contact.

However...
I'm sure that there are people all over the world doing this sort of =
dumb
thing.
What do you think about adding a little bit of address validation before
attempting to send.
I am only looking at removing spaces from an email address between the < =
>,
since no address should have spaces.
Not saying MS Exchange is anything to go by, but sending to a contact =
that
has a trailing space using exchange, does get through, and checking the
received email, the trailing space is not there.

Your thoughts?

Rob :-)
