Re: Anyone using QtmmSendEmail... a favor... :)

[Bradley Stone <bvstone@xxxxxxxxx>]

Shannon, I posted one in my first email on this thread:

xxxXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxx

Luis, would you have the RFC number handy?  I guess I can search for
it, but I'm just about to get my beauty sleep...

I have tried this with MAILTOOL Plus, which bypasses the IBM SMTP
server and it works.  It also works using gmail.

Interesting links here now that I knew what to search for.. IBM seems
to be 1 off from the max link of the local part of the address:

http://isemail.info/xxxXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXxxxxxx%40bvstools.com

which doesn't work with QtmSendMail

vs

http://isemail.info/xxxxXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXxxxxxx%40bvstools.com

which fails the RFC and also won't work with QtmmSend Mail
