I have seen this message again, in other applications. Try to pay with credit card and without login in to your paypal account. I am sure that PayPal will say to you that the e-mail address in fine...

This message is showing str8 away after i click on my elxis site, the paypal button. There's no other option before or after... so i haven's logged in.
Also see this small error showing up in the elxis site. See the attachment again.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLL RIGHT!
Disable the cloak email bot!
It destroys any e-mail address it finds on the site. I forgot to mention that in bot's description!
Come one Elxis Community! You should find this out by yourself! :P
-
Hmmm!!! So cloak or paypal ;D
Ok thanks John! ;)
Edit: Cloak can still be in use. Right?

E-mail cloaking Bot destroys all e-mails it finds even if they are inside forms. I searched for a better cloaking script but I did nt found something good. It is like you said: cloak or paypal! To be or not to be :D

Open : /mambots/content/mosemailcloak.php
Comment the lines 80 - 87 with //
Now you can have both email cloak bot and Paypal buy together ;)
The cloak bot will only cloak emails that have this structure : <a href="mailto:email@amail.com">anytext</a>
It don't cloak emails like this : email@email.com
Good luck

But now I was also need it :)

We can solve this problem with a small hack of the PayPal Buy Now bot.
Steps
1. Make the Paypal bot accept mails not the usual format. This way the e-mail wont be destroyed by the cloaking bot.
Example:
username[at]domain[dot]com
2. Set the cloaking bot execution order to a number LOWER than the paypal's bot.
Done!
If you wish I can modify the bot to make it work this way.
