Hello,

On a locally hosted instance of FUDforum, I am experiencing issues with mailing list synchronization.

- When I do not configure a custom SMTP server, no emails are sent at all (not just the posts, but also account confirmation emails).

- When I do configure an SMTP server, it sometimes fails, depending on the server and the mailing list address. When the SMTP is auth.smtp.1and1.fr, and the mailing list is on lists.gnu.org, mail delivery fails with replies like the following:

This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of
its recipients. This is a permanent error.

The following address failed:

lilypond-user-fr(at)gnu(dot)org:
SMTP error from remote server for TEXT command, host: eggs.gnu.org (209.51.188.92) reason: 550 Message headers fail syntax check

I've tried SMTP servers auth.smtp.1and1.fr and smtp.gmail.com, as well as recipients gmail.com, a personal address at 1and1, and gnu.org lists. Only the combination of sender auth.smtp.1and1.fr and recipient gnu.org triggers the failure.


As was suggested to me, I tried the following patch, to no avail:

This was intended to strip the "Administrator" part from the fields, but they remain in the error message.

Any help would be appreciated.
