ENOM's new bug (now in WHOIS)!

[owndomain]

You can test:

If your whois for doman contains a second address line, you can see this second line from whois.enom.com.

But with other whois site, www.coolwhois.com, www.easywhois.com, this second line is missing!

It means: if someone send mails to you, it may get lost!


Can anyone check it also?

I get the same - but how would you lose mail? your email is listed for first point of contact and your postal address should be complete without the second line offering by eNom anyways.

I think it's problem with coolwhois.com and easywhois.com

Stick with registrar's whois data.

It's an eNom bug. The 2nd address line is still missing, and now the 1st address line and the City/Zip displays all on the same line!

But ENOM will not think it. They always think they are right.

They only care for: whois.enom.com

Obviously, what's missing is a carriage return. I don't think it causes any trouble.

:-O well............

Obviously, what's missing is a carriage return. I don't think it causes any trouble.

So no trouble will be caused, even the total whois is showing in one line?

I added a period "." as the second address line in my default WHOIS profile and now things seem to be fine :-D

My view: It's done on purpose to stop bulk whois parsing of postal addresses. The only way you'll see it without the error is via an http interface like Enom's own. All 'raw' whois servers or referrers will return the error. Shame Enom isn't clever enough to stop http access -- you can form a URL do bulk query their whois over http anyway. Whoever's in charge of that little tweak needs firing for not finishing the job properly.
