1. ‘the easy part’: as said the antispam cleared out the email address not the code tag, you can continue blaming whatever you like, but you have to get to reality if you want to really understand how things work.
Plus with my website I do what I want.

2. ‘the really easy part’: if I cannot have the exact error what you think I can do? Open a ticket to Swift mailer with random email? Get to reality or stop to speak to me, you are wasting my time.

First, the easy part: I’m not interested in “fault” – life’s too short, seriously – but the fact is that it really says under the comment text area: “You may use these HTML tags and attributes” but what you read is not what you get, really (hint: you can tweak or simply kill the printed allowed tags with comment_notes_after in your theme)

Then, the really easy part: I’m not inclined to post or email real people’s names and email addresses, period. But there were absolutely no “strange” characters in there, nothing you wouldn’t find in a standard ASCII table, so there’s no character encoding issue in play either. The data in the log was exact analogous to what I typed. Dunno what borked it; it’s not unique though, looking at Google I’ve seen a bunch of reports of “strictness” issues at parsing.

I already read the email in paste bin
[14-Jan-2012 21:15:11] PHP Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Swift_RfcComplianceException' with message 'Address in mailbox given [John Doe ] does not comply with RFC 2822, 3.6.2.' in /path/to/public_html/wp-content/plugins/cimy-swift-smtp/Swift/lib/classes/Swift/Mime/Headers/MailboxHeader.php:308

but I believe is not the real one you used is it? You changed it and I am asking the _real_ one that caused the issue not an example from you.
Errors must be reported AS IS not an interpretation of.

BTW: Code tag works but Akismet antispam clears out email addresses seems so or WordPress has issues with < and > anyway is it my fault?

Look at the source code of my comment – in spite of the advertised support for the “code” tags it ate the “code” tags itself so the example email format shown above doesn’t print as intended.

The email format that throws the error is as shown in the pastebin – i.e.:

John Doe

Not even quotes surrounding the name (even though that is used a lot out there, too)

That doesn’t fix anything is just a workaround, if you have an email address that is not validated by Swift Mailer you should send me via email or to the Swift mailer developer.

Ugh… Pasted the wrong link but you get the idea.

Thanks Marco, I solved it – by nuking the error message of that sterile “compliance” check on perfectly valid addresses. See also:

Less is more.

As said via email provide full log to me in private.

Hi Marco, I’m rather unexpectedly (i.e. this is new) error reports in the PHP error log, triggered by the Cimy Swift SMTP plugin. I’ve minimally sanitized the log and put it up publicly visible for 1 month on Pastebin here:

Any idea what’s going on there? Thanks in advance!
