Description I found an infinite loop case that should be checked out.

Let's assume that I have support ticket email integration enabled at [email protected] . Let's also assume I do not have an email set in my profile as administrator. Here's what can happen:

*In certain situations, such as newsletter emailing, since I don't have a set email address in my profile, the site may email [email protected] if site configuration causes it to (I think setting staff email to it does).

*Since I do not have an email address set on my account, and since [email protected] is the support ticket email, what happens is an email gets sent to [email protected] . Composr doesn't recognize the from address of [email protected] associated with any account, and therefore emails [email protected] to inform about that. However, this then causes a chain reaction of emailing [email protected] every time cron executes to check for new emails for support tickets.
