Summary1601: Sending recommendation mail may not work (host-specific)
DescriptionWe have spotted this issue on Arvixe, but it likely affects other hosts.

The recommendation mailer doesn't have a "to" name, so uses the target address as the name, creating an e-mail To header like:
"[email protected]" <[email protected]>

E-mail addresses within names are causing an error behind the scenes like:
Warning: Sendmail error code: 1 [/usr/sbin/sendmail: unexpected response 501 to RCPT TO command /usr/sbin/sendmail: unexpected response 503 to DATA command ]

(The user just sees Composr's generic "A system e-mail could not be sent" message, as PHP cannot directly provide the error details)

The hot fix will change Composr to send a To header like:
"test" <[email protected]>
(i.e. stripping the domain component)

Fixed in git commit 3ecb8db (https://github.com/chrisgraham/Composr/commit/3ecb8db - link will become active once code pushed)

A hotfix (a TAR of files to upload) have been uploaded to this issue. These files are made to the latest intra-version state (i.e. may roll in earlier fixes too if made to the same files) - so only upload files newer than what you have already. Always take backups of files you are replacing or keep a copy of the manual installer for your version, and only apply fixes you need. These hotfixes are not necessarily reliable or well supported. Not sure how to extract TAR files to your Windows computer? Try 7-zip (http://www.7-zip.org/).
