Notification Settings for Scheduled Test Lists - email to txt

[Thomas]

Why does the email address field not accept txt addresses as valid?  For instance I'd like to receive a text when a test list fails and the email address is in this format. [e-mail] Is there any way around this validation issue?

Hello Thomas,

I am sorry to hear about the issue you are experiencing. I have tested it on my side and you are right, this is not working. However this should be fixed in the official R1 release due in June. 
Until now I can only offer you the following workaround. In the SMTP configuration please put a different email address where you should receive the emails when a test list fails, then you can configure an automatic forwarder forwarding the messages with specific subject/content to  [e-mail] .

Thank you for your understanding regarding this matter and please excuse us for the inconvenience caused.

Thanks for the quick reply.  I figured it was something in the email check for the extra periods after the @.... Look forward to seeing the fix in the R1 release.
