There are many differences between 2.70 and 2.74. It's not clear to me that they should cause problems with sending e-mails. At least I have not experienced any problems. 

Which process is sending the e-mail, where does it get the e-mail address? Perl module for sending e-mail or system call to an external process? I suppose an assumption of a newline (or white space) at the end of the e-mail address that no longer holds could cause problems when building a command line.
