[RESOLVED] totally stumpted on this mail send issue.

[kleinma]

I have some legacy websites that I maintain for some customers, and they needed some things moved around.

The only real server side coding is to send emails. The sites are hosted on godaddy IIS7 hosting.

I use the CDO.Message object to send the emails. My issue (which did NOT exist until recently, with NO changes to code/hosting service at all) is that the server throws up an error IF the HTML body of the email to be sent contains the @ sign in it.

So on the form that is to be filled out, there is an email address field, which obviously will include the @ sign.

During debugging I narrowed it down to that fact. If the @ sign is in the HTML, it errors out, otherwise it works.

I am doing some testing right now to encode the @ sign as &#64

However I really want to know why this all of a sudden started happening.

Any thoughts?
