If the username + domain name + inter-address punctuation is longer than
30 chars it won't work.
I don't see a good reason for the upper limit, or at least for one that
restrictive. The To and Cc headers aren't going to be unboundedly long.
Thanks John (and others).
Yes, the limit of 30 looks too small. I just created a local rule upping the
limit to 100 and it now fires as expected.
John - can we increase the limit?
Upped to 100. I was going to suggest something smaller, but realized that
includes the user-visible-name part. 100 may not be enough given things
like encoded UTF-8 display names, but this will improve things.
