Hi everyone,
when you add a custom/advanced action "Send e-mail ..." you can enter a recipient address. Below the field for the recipient address, it is written one can use placeholders "like [node:author:mail], [comment:author:mail] etc." with that. But when you enter [node:author:mail] instead of a mailaddress, drupal tries to send a mail to "[node:author:mail]@domain"; please take my mail log for prove:

What I would expect to happen is either that "[node:author:mail]" is replaced by Drupal by the e-mail of the node's author or that this isn't written below this field; where the first solution would be prefered.
