Problems Adding Email Addresses That Contain Apostrophes in CC and BCC Field

Overview

If an email address that contains an apostrophe (i.e., john.D’Anvil@domain.com) is added to the CC or BCC fields, the text before the apostrophe gets stripped. This means that the system will remove the "john.D" part of the email address in our example above and retains only the "Anvil@domain.com" part.

This was a bug in lower versions and the issue was fixed in the email parser of Kayako Classic version 4.93.16.
