Hello Ed, I am registered on hotcrp using the email anevod@mail.ru. The last year I had no problem with this email, but now it was automatically replaced with nevod@mail.ru. The problem seems to be in the char `` not recognized by the regex as a legal email symbol. Please address this issue as quickly as possible, since I have some urgent papers to review!

We also had problems with this. php has a built-in function for this:

filter_var($email, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)

but perhaps hotcrp has special requirements in the way it uses the email address.

HotCRP allows underscores in emails before the @. @TonitaN Please say more exactly what has happened, your bug report is not very specific. “It was automatically replaced”? In what way? @kmccurley maybe you can be more specific too.

kohler commented 3 years ago

I suspect that what happened @TonitaN is simply that Youyou Cong spelled your email incorrectly.

@kohler thank you, all is ok now!
