Email address too long for line

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug A mail address that is too long to fit on the display won’t be accepted as one address but two (or more) addresses.

To Reproduce Try to send an email to an address that is too long for your display width, for example abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz@outlook.com. The app will now display the address in two lines, in my case like this: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz@outlook. com The app will now see every line as single address and think you want to send mails to abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz@outlook. and com.

Expected behavior The app should see the address as a single one, even after a new line.

Environment

  • K-9 Mail version: 5.721
  • Android version: 10
  • Device: Samsung Galaxy A9

Now I have this issue too. Why i don’t know, because I’m using the same version of k9 and android as before. v 5.724 (from f-droid) android10 sony xperia5 . A little workaround is to put the phone in horizontal view when using a long mail address.
