Mautic and Abine do not get along

Development
1

I started working with Mautic about a week ago. For some reason I was having several problems depending which browser I was using (Safari and Chrome both on macSierra).



After jumping a few hurdles that I thought were related but turned out not to be so much, and just bugs (see below), I still wasn’t able to send emails with content that actually showed up when I was using safari. On the receiving end, the source code of the emails looked like this (in part):

Code:

    doc.createEvent(‘CustomEvent’) : doc.creat=

I noticed (after too long than I'd like to admit) a function name
Code:
abineDispatch()
and thought it might be that browser extension that was messing it up. After disabling the abine (aka Blur) extension, I can now successfully send emails from Mautic using both Safari and Chrome on macSierra.

I hope this helps anyone else from pulling their hair out.


Other bugs:
Domain in emails is substituted with LAN ip if you don't access server through actual externally accessible domain:
