Hi everyone.  
  
This is an error (I think) for the "Send email" action. We have an internal email address here that is only accessible via a specific mail server. That mail server was setup in&nbsp;SMTP. If I use the internal address in the "From" field, everyhing is ok.&nbsp;If I use it in the receipients, I always get an "invalid address".  
  
So I think that some validations are done on the "From" but not on the receipients.  
  
Thank you.

Hi Mayoo,   
  
 The Send Email action does not perform any validation on the format of the email address, this is left up to the mail server. What is the exact error that you’re getting?   
  
 Regards,   
 Paul.

Unable to Send Message (Send)  
Invalid Address

That is the only messages I&nbsp;get in the logs.&nbsp;I&nbsp;will very again with the local techs to confirm that everything is working fine.  
  
The part that I don't understand is that it works with the From but not in the receipients.  
  
Thanks.  
  
EDIT&nbsp;:&nbsp;My fault, actually the problem was that I was thinking the entries in the text file to define the receipients were separated by ;. In fact, it is one email per line. Problem solved !
