      How to stop Opera automatically inserting angle brackets into email addresses when I send a reply? The error calls for the size limit of the header, but when I remove angle brackets - the email reply goes through.

      I keep on getting this error:
      Bad Request Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Size of a request header field exceeds server limit.

        @vicstone What email service? How is the behavior in other Chromium based browsers?
        What version of Opera?

              @leocg Chromium based browsers don't have this issue. Mail service is netaddress.com Opera just got updated to 111.0.5168.25

                    @vicstone said in Opera is automatically inserting angle brackets in email reply:

                    netaddress.com

                    If you can contact customer service and get a test account username and password, someone here could at least check it out and see if it happens to them and maybe see what the issue is.

                      Or, see https://reddit.com/r/operabrowser/wiki/opera/known_issues/#wiki_can.27t_log_in_to_twitch for an example of how you can trick the site into thinking you're using Chrome to test if that helps.

                        @burnout426 Thank you. It is too complicated. I wished Opera rolled back a couple updates that caused the issue. I have been using Opera for many years without any problems. This issue is recent.
