Newsletter Unsubscribe from email not working

[Jayman11]

For some reason I have noticed that customers are having problems removing themselves from the newsletter via the emailed link at the bottom of the newsletter. It seems to be losing the @ symbol when it unsubscribes them so it really doesnt take them off. I have the simple visitor newsletter contrib installed and am wondering if anyone knows what code to look for to fix this?

In unsubscribe.php and unsubscribe_done.php line 17-21

 

replace:

  if (isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['email'])) {
$email_to_unsubscribe = ereg_replace('[^0-9A-Za-z@._-]', '', $HTTP_GET_VARS['email']); 
 } else {
$email_to_unsubscribe = '';
 }

 

with:

 

  if (isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['email'])) {
$email_to_unsubscribe = $HTTP_GET_VARS['email']; 
 } else {
$email_to_unsubscribe = '';
 }
