This wouldresult in multiple simultaneously open message bases and could resultin an exhaustion of open file descriptors leading to a failure to openany additional files (includign message bases) and thus a subsequent"GROUP" command would fail with the wrong "!no such group" error.

    FYI:

    i found that cardbook extension of thunderbird did not work with sbbs
    nntp service. I submit to cardbook author and sems to fixed now

    Anyway, this issue is only with sbbs service, i have another nntp
    accounts without problems.

    yeah i guess that parsing the from address was cause this issue

    maybe the "/" char break the standard use@domain (rf822) ? if true, can
    be possible to replace with another character?

    Looking at that issue report, it seems it had problems with user@ADDRESSes that did not include "/" as well, so I don't think that was the issue.

    Nothing in RFC822 appears to disallow a "/" in the "domain" portion of the mailbox addr-spec.

    Use SMTP-routable Fido/QWK netmail addresses is From header fieldsUse the Synchronet-supported FTN/QWKnet routable addressing in the from fieldsof messages posted via those network types. Using the mailutil.jsfidoaddr_to_emailaddr() function that was apparently created for listserver.jsbut then made unnecessary (and thus unused for several years).I think this addresses the concerns from issue #487. Reading a message viaNTTP (using the Synchronet NNTP service) in Thunderbird, one can now replyto sender via email and it "just works" so long as the sysop has configuredthe network support for those net-types correctly and Thunderbird isconfigured with the Synchronet mail server as its SMTP server to use for thatnewsgroup folder. Whether the Synchronet mail server is configured to usedirect delivery or relay is not relevant (though mentioned in the issuedescription).
