Whoops, somehow I missed the other responses on this thread until I looked on the web archive version of this mailing list. I see that a solution to "Use of uninitialized value $address" has already been proposed. I suppose I may have mistook what issue was being reported. I had originally understood the problem to be that hook related logic was failing with correct email addresses, but it seems rather that we are trying to fix an error that occurs when an email address that fails extract_valid_address_or_die() is given. Feel free to ignore my last email if that is all we are trying to solve.
I just had an impression that the original was complaining about the command failing, and the patches addressed a side issue that the error message that is given when the command fails uses an undefined value. The report was not quite clear what Bagas considerd a regression (e.g. did the command allow an invalid address like <pi@pi> but now it complains?), though.
