Summary

0010174: Processqueue gets stuck in infinite loop with concatenated email addresses

Description

I found that the processqueue will get stuck in an infinite loop if two email address get concatenated accidentally. That is, it keeps trying to send over and over and over to that one address but keeps failing because it's a bad address.

Email format like this: "user1@domain1.com;user2@domain2.com" will be imported and NOT flagged as invalid and "reconcile users" does not pick it up.

Of course the ISP fails it because it's invalid, but processqueue keeps trying to send it every batch time.

Can you folks add a check in the import function to guard against two @ signs?

This is a problem because as process queue gets stuck in an infinite loop I cannot tell if the mails have been successfully sent...

(0027497) btoland (reporter) 03-06-07 13:58	OK, I've tested this with some test lists and all the people apart from those with a concatenated email receive the message fine so this is really a just a minor issue not a major one. Just have to leave the process queue page after I think all messages sent.... Still annoying as I get multiple report messages delivered too - one each loop.

(0045914) g4b0 (reporter) 28-04-08 10:20	I've noted the same behavior when the email is valid, but it does not exist. I tested it using an email in my domain like noemail@domain.it Same behavior.
