[ZendTo] Re: Local sender email address invalid - solved

[Steve Mason]

Found it! 
For some odd reason my email address in AD had the first 2 characters in
upper case. Been here 7 years, never noticed that before :)
I changed it, and that solved the issue.  Odd that it displayed as lower
case in the "information about the sender" box....
 
Thanks,
 
Steve

What is the exact email address? And are you using SQLite or MySQL?

If it was reading nothing for the sender email address, you would get the
ErrorSenderEmail string from zendto.conf. You only get the
ErrorSenderBadEmail string if the email address fails to match the regular
expression I mentioned below.

If you would rather send me the exact email address off-list, please do so.
Please copy and paste it from the "name,email address,organisation" page
(preferably from the HTML source of the page) and double-check there are no
leading or trailing spaces. A trailing space would cause this, among other
things.

The code that does this is here (it's in NSSDropoff.php) :

    if ( ! $senderEmail ) {
      return $smarty->getConfigVariable('ErrorSenderEmail');
    }
    if ( !
preg_match('/^([a-z0-9][a-z0-9\.\_\-\+]*)\@([a-z0-9][a-z0-9\_\-\.]+)$/',$sen
derEmail,$emailParts) ) {
      return $smarty->getConfigVariable('ErrorSenderBadEmail');
    }

So as you see, that is how you get that error message.

Thanks,
Jules.

I'm using AD. The email address confirmation page is correct, and it is the
same email address that is in AD.

What authenticator are you using?
If AD, then does that user have an email address defined in their AD
properties? If they don't have one at all, that will cause those symptoms.

This error happens if the sender email address does not match this:
/^([a-z0-9][a-z0-9\.\_\-\+]*)\@([a-z0-9][a-z0-9\_\-\.]+)$/

When you select "Dropoff" from the main menu, it takes you to a page that
confirms the sender name, email address and organisation. Exactly what
showed up in the sender email address on that page?
