 * Hi,
 * First time posting, so apologies if I don’t get the protocol correct..
 * Think I’ve found a bug-ette with v1.04.0 of the Formidable plugin (great plugin
   btw).
 * The plugin seems to use the Site Title as the display name of the from address
   for the emails it generates, however if the Site Title contains commas, then 
   the underlying email system treats the commas as separators and tries to CC the
   email to multiple recipients.
 * For example, if the Site Title is set to “My Site, Foo, Bar, Baz” and Site Email
   is set to “info@mydomain.com” then the system tries to CC the following email
   addresses:
    “My Site” <My Site@servername@myhost.com> “Foo” <Foo@servername@myhost.
   com> “Bar” <Bar@servername@myhost.com> “Baz” <info@mydomain.com>
 * Note that it gets the correct address in at the end, so the email will go through,
   but I was getting several bounce messages per form submission from my hosting
   email server.
 * The workaround is to drop commas from the Site Title, but it would probably make
   sense to handle this a bit better in the plugin.
 * Cheers,
 * Marc
