'File name or class not found' error when adding an address to the mailing list

Question

If adding an email address to the mail list I get the following error:

Mailing List Process
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01b0'
File name or class name not found during Automation operation: 'RegExp'
../includes/functions.asp, line 125

What's going wrong?

Answer

The mailing list feature uses 'regular expressions' to check the email address, ensuring it is of a correct format, i.e. that it has an '@' symbol and a dot, etc.

If you have an older version of the server and scripting platform, RegExp (regular expressions) may not be supported. You can check whether your platform supports it here on Microsoft's MSDN web site.
