just wondering under what conditions have to be entered for the ‘‘sorry there was an error’’ to be generated.  
I put in an email as. sss@eee.123  
and it still comes through ..anything with @ in gets delivered  
and if you dont put any @ in it gets asks for a valid email..  
never had the error message appear
