PMF_Mail Class: is not a valid e-mail address!

[limen]

Hi there folks!

Trying to install phpMyFAQ 2.5.0-beta but when I try to add a new question I get the following error: "phpMyFAQ user error [256]: PMF_Mail Class: is not a valid e-mail address! in Mail.php on line 281".

Any ideas?

Cheers

Hi,

did you entered a correct e-mail address? It works for me on phpMyFAQ pre2.5.0-RC.

Yes I did enter a valid address. I've tried different addresses with different user-accounts - but without success.

Hi,

can you please update to the current SVN snapshot and try it again? Thanks for testing!

Same problem for me with 2.5.2

Is this bug confirmed in this version aswell?

[Thorsten]

Hi,

no...do you get the same error message?

Yes, i do.

Maybe i´ll try to reinstall?

But if the problem with "open questions not showing" is confirmed and won´t be solved until 2.5.3, i will wait.

Hi,

you can try the following. Open inc/Mail.php and goto line 912 and remove the following code:

Code: Select all

        // phpMyFAQ has adopted a class to manage Internationalized Domain Names
        global $IDN;
        if (isset($IDN)) {
            $address = $IDN->decode($address);
        }

No, still:

phpMyFAQ user error [256]: PMF_Mail Class: is not a valid e-mail address! in Mail.php on line 281

[Thorsten]

Hi,

please remove

Code: Select all

        // Sanity checks
        if (empty($address)) {
            return false;
        }

some lines above.

Still phpMyFAQ user error [256]: PMF_Mail Class: is not a valid e-mail address! in Mail.php on line 281

[Thorsten]

Hi,

you can also remove the following in this method:

Code: Select all

if (strpos($address, '\0') !== false) {
            return false;
        }
 
        // Always sanitize!
        // http://www.php-security.org/MOPB/PMOPB-45-2007.html
        $unsafe = array ("\r", "\n");
        if ($address !== str_replace($unsafe, '', $address)) {
            return false;
        }

But will this also solve the "open questions"-problem?

If not, i´ll rather wait for the next release!

[Thorsten]

Hi,

is it fixed now with the removal?

The open question issue is fixed in 2.5.3.

Unfortunately, still same problem after removal.
