Hi,
I can't use my true Email "b3rl1go@netcourrier.com" as account identifier.
A message says that this email is invalid.

Can you please add the netcourrier.com domain to the valid domain form check? So i can have my true CPID

For information, netcourrier.com is an old French Email provider.

Thank you

Sorry, just now seeing this.

I don't know what you mean by "valid domain form check". Maybe this is an issue with the BOINC web code? Do you have any more information to go on?

Hi, Thanks for your reply.
When i want to change my email in my account, i received the error message 'the new email b3rl1go@netcourrier.com is not valid"

Your form validation reject this email adresse.
I think that your form validation rules does not accept the domain of my email netcourrier.com

I think I may have tracked your problem down to the following piece of BOINC code:

function is_valid_email_addr($addr) {
    if (defined("USE_STOPFORUMSPAM") && USE_STOPFORUMSPAM) {
        $ip_addr = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
        $x = @file_get_contents("http://www.stopforumspam.com/api?ip=".$ip_addr."&email=".$addr);
        if (substr_count($x, '<appears>yes</appears>')) {
            return false;
        }
    }
    $pattern = '/^([^@]+)@([^@\.]+)\.([^@]{2,})$/';
    $match = preg_match($pattern, $addr);
    return (bool) $match;
}


This suggests that they think your email address is associated with SPAM. Not sure what to do about this. Do you have this problem with other BOINC projects?

Ok, I see.
I only have this problem on Universe@home and your project.

I don't find my email on this blacklist
http://www.stopforumspam.com/search?d=netcourrier.com

But if i execute the rules, the result said i'm blacklisted.
<response success="true">
<type>ip</type>
<appears>no</appears>
<frequency>0</frequency>
<type>email</type>
<appears>yes</appears>
<lastseen>2016-03-08 18:25:26</lastseen>
<frequency>255</frequency>
</response>

I ask and admin on they Forum
http://www.stopforumspam.com/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=45149#p45149

He said the entire "netcourrier.com" domain is blacklisted...

You can maybe make your own whitelist?
$white_list=array('b3rl1go@netcourrier.com');

if (defined("USE_STOPFORUMSPAM") && USE_STOPFORUMSPAM) {
    $ip_addr = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
    $x = @file_get_contents("http://www.stopforumspam.com/api?ip=".$ip_addr."&email=".$addr);
    if (substr_count($x, '<appears>yes</appears>')) {
        if(!in_array($addr, $white_list)){
            return false;
        }
    }
}

    }
}



That would work, but every time I upgrade BOINC, I would have to manually change this again.

I will see if I can get the BOINC maintainers to make this permanent.

Message 1588 - Posted: 10 Mar 2016, 4:20:31 UTC - in response to Message 1587.  

ok.

Is this script used for login too? Or only for account creation and modification?

If no, you maybe can make this modification temporary, i change my email, get my true CPID and you remove this modification.
What do you think about?

It was easier to just turn off the STOPFORUMSPAM flag. Let me know when you get your email changed and I will turn it back on.

It will be interesting to see if we get any spam messages. I don't actually expect any since I have it set to only allow posting if the user has credit (however, I dont think that applies to the Question and Answers section).
