[imp] recipient parsing - error?

[Björn Hansson]

Thank you both for your quick reply!

I am aware that this is not correct, any however some users do write ";". Today
I manually bounce these messages - is there something "better" I can do?

Of course, I do try to make the users understand this, but as we all know this
can be hard. How do big companies handle this problem? Or do they have "better"
users than I do?


Best regards,
Björn
