Mail fails to send with RFC violation error

[kahunapule]

Mail from Bibledit cloud is being rejected for RFC violations. See https://postmaster.1und1.de/en/case?c=r0735&i=ip&v=209.85.215.182&r=1N4vJQ-1vlTAc2nbw-00rgYB

554 Transaction failed Reject due to policy restrictions

Reason

Your e-mails have been rejected by our mail system because the information provided in the e-mail header does not comply with the specifications in RFC 5322 and RFC 2047.

The header field "To" is syntactically not correct.

Solution

Please make sure that the requirement of RFC 5322 chapter 3.4 for the header field "To" is fulfilled.

In case you use Non-ASCII characters like accented letters or symbols, please consider RFC 2047. For these characters you must use MIME encoding.

As soon as the corrections have been made by you, you can deliver emails to our system again.

[teusbenschop]

It has been fixed on GitHub.
Are you in need of any packages for Bibledit Cloud, or do you perhaps build it from the repository?

[kahunapule]

1. I am also getting emails rejected for "line too long" errors.
2. I tried to build the fixed code, but was unable to, due to dependencies on a specific version of automake.

[teusbenschop]

About building straight from Git, run $ ./reconfigure before doing the $ ./configure but this is not documented.
That should take care of the version difference of automake.

A new tarball was released, it is here: https://github.com/bibledit/cloud/releases/tag/5.1.042
That doesn't need the "reconfigure".

About the rejected emails for "line too long", I'll look into this too.

This 5.1.042 release replaces the 5.1.041 release pulled earlier.
