When I submitted the VCS request form (http://php.net/git-php.php), the resulting email to the mailing list (http://news.php.net/php.doc/969385877) didn't properly (un)escape the apostrophe. Expected result: ---------------- My name would appear as: Colin O'Dell Actual result: -------------- See http://news.php.net/php.doc/969385877 There's a backslash in the "From" field. The email body also contains a backslash followed by the numeric HTML entity. And here's how the email came through: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/449877/ShareX/2015/09/2015-09-06_22-17-37.png ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=70443&edit=1
