2570.0. "Sometimes free-form-name in parenthesis" by ZUR01::TOLBA () Thu Mar 13 1997 19:47

Hello,

I have a customer problem where they sometimes receive messages from MRX
with the free-form-name in parenthesis (ALL-IN-1 V3.1 German):

____________________________________________________________________
Bad message where free-form-name is in parenthesis 

From:       (yoshiko fujita)

1=ch@*RFC-822\fujita(a)leland.Stanford.EDU@5=inet@2=admin@ADMIN@BUWAL2


This gives the following Reply address:

To:  (yoshiko fujita)                     (
1=ch@*RFC-822\fujita(a)leland.Stanford.EDU@5=inet@2=admin@ADMIN@BUWAL2 )


The user will get with the above reply address a postmaster back:

Unrecognized recipient name, the name does not match any available

____________________________________________________________________

Sometimes the message is received correctly:

From:      yoshiko fujita

1=ch@*RFC-822\fujita(a)leland.Stanford.EDU@5=inet@2=admin@ADMIN@BUWAL2

This gives the following Reply address:

TO:  yoshiko fujita                       (
1=ch@*RFC-822\fujita(a)leland.Stanford.EDU@5=inet@2=admin@ADMIN@BUWAL2 )
                                              
____________________________________________________________________


Any hints/explanations why sometimes the message is received by ALL-IN-1 with 
free-form-name in parenthesis and another time not?

Thanks and regards,
Manuela
