Error description
When using the IBM Rational License Key Server (RLKS) Administration and Reporting Tool (ART) to send reports via email, attempts to send email to multiple recipients may fail silently. Analysis of the ART logs may show the following exception trace: ERROR 2016-04-06 18:00:23,746 [Thread-16][com.ibm.rcl.reporting.actionperformers.Emailer]- javax.mail.internet.AddressException: Illegal semicolon, not in group in string "joe.user@mydomain.com;Denise.Allison@mydomain.com'' at position 22 org.apache.commons.mail.EmailException: javax.mail.internet.AddressException: Illegal semicolon, not in group in string "joe.user@mydomain.com;Denise.Allison@mydomain.com'' at position 22 at org.apache.commons.mail.Email.createInternetAddress(Email.java:1 909) at org.apache.commons.mail.Email.addTo(Email.java:838) at org.apache.commons.mail.Email.addTo(Email.java:821) at org.apache.commons.mail.Email.addTo(Email.java:770) The semi-colon is not a valid separator for user email addresses according to RFC's 821 and 822. Attempts to use the RFC-compliant character -- the comma -- will also fail as the ART itself will reject that separator string.
Local fix
If your email system allows you to create a mailing list that has a directly-accessible internet-style email address, use that email address as the destination email.
