It appears that this release has broken CURL emailing for me.

The workaround in pr2, that you mentioned, did work.

@Jerry_Fritschle

It appears that this release has broken CURL emailing for me.

Future Jerry: no, pr3 is fine. It was not CURL that broke the emailing in my test project. This happened to coincide with my site’s migration, as my host was swallowed in a merger. I had done everything necessary at my end–except for tweaking the SMTP info (for my test account) in the project itself.
