I don't have any details except that no combination of
letters, digits, and symbols was accepts. I tried many
variations including the one that was suggested from the
autogenerated example. I tried a very long sentence with
all possible keyboard characters (a variation on
"the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog" with
caps, symbols, etc.). Nothing was accepted.
The problem has been solved at this point so I cannot
experiment further. It might be useful if the reject
message contained a debug marker so it could be included
in the bug report.
