GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 209819
composer should accept unqualified recipients
Last modified: 2001-09-13 17:52:19 UTC
Package: Evolution Priority: Normal Version: 0.13.99 Synopsis: composer should accept unqualified recipients Bugzilla-Product: Evolution Bugzilla-Component: Mailer Description: I have sendmail on my laptop configured to forward mail to unqualified recipients (like "bob") to a smarter machine that will do the right thing. Until the latest snapshot, evolution's composer did not care if I sent mail to "bob" instead of "bob@some.domain". Might I suggest that this be another configurable? Unknown reporter: georgn@somanetworks.com, changed to bugbuddy-import@ximian.com.
Sending mail to unqualified email addresses is against the specification. Ideally, the mailer will append a default domain to any address you enter. This is something we'll have to deal with, but which probably won't happen until after 1.0 See also http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=208826 , which I am also assigning to Jon Trowbridge, trow@ximian.com.
These aren't exactly dups, but I'm rolling them into one bug. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 208826 ***
