Thu, 08 Jun 2006 06:50:33 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/4018#t20980 When and where do you get that message? Thu, 08 Jun 2006 08:28:35 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/4018#t20983 I get this message in the compose-window when sending a mail to a group-name which contains a dot ( . ) and the mail won't get sent. The same groupnames worked fine in IMP 4.0.3 and Turba 2.0.2. Thu, 08 Jun 2006 08:44:20 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/4018#t20984 Group names with dots need to be quoted according to RF2822. Michael, I tried it with this (ugly) patch: --- api.php.~1.188.~ 2006-05-22 14:35:32.000000000 +0200 +++ api.php 2006-06-08 18:59:50.000000000 +0200 @@ -1010,6 +1010,9 @@ } } } + require_once 'Horde/MIME.php'; + $vars = get_class_vars('MIME'); + $listatt['name'] = MIME::_rfc822Encode($listatt['name'], $vars['rfc822_filter'] . '.'); $results[$name][] = array('name' => $listatt['name'], 'email' => implode(', ', $emails), 'id' => $listatt['__key'], 'source' => $source); } } But this resulted in inconsistent results when I expand names with ajax or use the address book popup. Maybe you have a bright idea? Thu, 08 Jun 2006 16:07:08 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/4018#t20985 We actually need to do the quoting in IMP rather than Turba - since a group name with a period in it is entirely allowable in Turba, any return from a contacts/search call should return the canonical list name. We only need to RFC 2822 encode the group name if we are dealing in an application that will use the group name in an e-mail context (i.e. IMP). Fixed in IMP HEAD and 4.1.3.
