1309524 - Not able to create email id with quotes

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Bugzilla :: User Accounts, defect)

Description

[Antoine]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/53.0.2785.143 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

Attempting to edit an email to include an apostrophe fails in spite of it being a valid email:
anto'[e-mail]

it says it did not pass syntax checking

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new user email to one with an apostrophe 


Actual results:

The e-mail address you entered (anto'[e-mail]) didn't pass our syntax checking for a legal email address. A legal address must contain exactly one '@', and at least one '.' after the @. It also must not contain any illegal characters.


Expected results:

Able to create the new user.

Fixed in Bugzilla 5.0.

Antoine: if you meant that this behaviour exists in bugzilla.mozilla.org (aka BMO), then we can reopen and move it to the correct product.  The "Bugzilla" product is meant for the general-use Bugzilla application, not BMO specifically, which is slightly divergent.

I have modified the "emailregexp => ^[\w\.\+\-=']+@[\w\.\-]+\.[\w\-]+$" in the admin page and able to create the email address with quotes. 

The email id's created with single quotes are not displayed in the Assignee or QA or CC auto complete list.

Things are working fine in Bugzilla 4.4.12. It is recommended to upgrade your installation (4.4.6 is two years old). Bugzilla 4.4.x is restricted to security fixes and crash fixes only, so please upgrade to 5.0.3 or newer if you still have issues with your installation.
