[PATCH v4] git-send-email: Use sanitized address when reading mbox body

From
Ccsókás <csókás>
Date
Jul 1, 2024, 09:01 UTC
Message-ID
<20240701090115.56957-1-csokas.bence@prolan.hu>

Addresses that are mentioned on the trailers in the commit log ('Signed-off-by: ' etc.) are added to @cc (unless suppressed), passed to the SMTP server. However, these hand-written addresses may be malformed (e.g. having unquoted commas and other punctuation marks in the display-name part).

The code was already calling `sanitize_address()` for suppression purposes, so we just have to use the result ($sc) for adding to @cc.

Note that sanitization is only done for the message body, as `git format-patch` already RFC 2047-encodes mbox headers, so those are generally trusted to be sane. Also note that `sanitize_address()` does not process the mailbox addresses, so it is up to `sendmail` to handle special characters there (e.g. there are mailboxes in regular use with '+'-es in them).
