Topic: email addresses with tilde delivered to alias-localdelivery-@domain.com

[jarkor]

Hi everybody.

I'm using sme server v7.1.3, when someone sends an email to a destination
address that contains tilde (') in the beggining and end of the address, the email
gets lost. In fact, the email is delivered to alias-localdelivery-@primarydomain.com
(where primarydomain.com is the primary domain for the server) but I don't know
where it goes then.

In the examples the domains and users are changed intentionally.

For example:

Any idea ?

There's any way to reject or bounce the email, or took away the tildes from it ?

Thanks in advance,

Hi everybody.

I'm using sme server v7.1.3, when someone sends an email to a destination
address that contains tilde (') in the beggining and end of the address, the email
gets lost.

You haven't shown a tilde (~) - you've shown a quote character (').

As it says every time you post here:

Thanks for your response Charlie. In fact, the correct character is a quote, it
was my mistake.

Sorry for posting here, I'll post to the but tracker.
