Help! I am unable to email results in PubMed. The reCAPTCHA widget produces the error message "ERROR for site owner: Invalid domain for site key"
This is caused by the reCAPTCHA that is now required to send e-mails from PubMed not working nicely with our EZproxy system. Unfortunately, there are no plans for PubMed to make changes that will allow this functionality to work correctly when using a link to PubMed that goes through EZproxy. To resolve this issue is to log into your NCBI account before the selecting the email option.
