In that case in Alfresco I receive an error like </SPAN><EM>"Failed to create content due to error: 05180014 Failed to send email to:marco.busetto"</EM><SPAN> and in the alfresco.log file I can see an error like this: </SPAN><BR /><BR /><PRE class="language-none line-numbers"><CODE>10:38:49,426 ERROR [org.alfresco.repo.action.executer.MailActionExecuter] Failed to send email to 'Marco Busetto &lt;marco.busetto@mycompany.it&gt;' as the address is incorrectly formatted<BR /><BR /><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN></CODE></PRE><SPAN>Another strange thing is that if the recipient is a group and not a user (or more than a user) everythings seems to work fine. Anyway I don't like very much this workaround: if I had 10.000 users I couldn't thinking to create 10.000 groups, one for every single user… </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Any ideas?</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Thanks. </SPAN><BR /><SPAN>_</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Fri, 18 Jun 2010 10:14:53 GMT marcobusetto 2010-06-18T10:14:53Z Failed to send email as the address is incorrectly formatted https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/failed-to-send-email-as-the-address-is-incorrectly-formatted/m-p/212513#M165643 I created a test space under my user home and I defined a rule to get an email notification when a new document is created in that space.
