Hello Internals,

I receive the following error when saving an RFC:

There was an unexpected problem communicating with SMTP: Unexpected return code - Expected: 250, Got: 554 | 554 5.5.2 <[i:p:v:6::addr]>: Helo command rejected: invalid ip address

From what I can gather, whatever SMTP server it is connecting to doesn't understand ipv6 addresses.

It's best to email systems@ with this kind of issues. To diagnose this, do you get this every time you save something?

And it really helps to have really accurate timings of when it happens as the log is so noisey.

Thanks! I'm not sure if I am a member of that list or not; one way to find out.

It looks like it was at 19:07 GMT, today. Thankfully, the HTML source includes the current time of the last update. It only appears when saving and leaving the "minor changes" box unchecked.

It's not a list, just an alias @php.net.

I'll give it a look in the next few days.

I had a look just now, and tried it out. But I can't reproduce the
error.

FWIW: I had the same issue today, when I updated the PHP 8.4 bulk
deprecation RFC to link the E_STRICT commit:

https://wiki.php.net/rfc/deprecations_php_8_4?do=revisions

I don't have accurate times, I'm afraid.

Best regards

I had the same issue just the other day.  I assume the edit notification
can't be sent.  This should be reported to systems.php.net, but maybe
one of these people is reading here.
