Acrobat JavaScript mailDoc operation failing

Goal: I have a fillable PDF form that collects data required to send an email. In the PDF, I have a button to send the PDF, using the mailDoc function on mouse up. 

if(app.viewerVersion < 11 )
   app.alert("Please download the latest version of Reader",1);

var cToAddr = "[email protected]";
var cBCCAddr = "[email protected]";
var cCCAddr = this.getField("ClientEmail").value;
var cBenAddr = this.getField("BennyEmail").value;

if(cBenAddr != "") {
    cCCAddr += ";" + cBenAddr;
}

var cSubLine = "Service Proposal " + this.getField("ServiceAddress").value + " " + this.getField("Text1").value;
var cBody = "Thank you for the opportunity. Please see attached proposal.\n" + "Save the filled form attachment for your own records";

this.mailDoc({
    bUI: true, 
    cTo: cToAddr, 
    cCc: cCCAddr, 
    cBcc: cBCCAddr,
    cSubject: cSubLine, 
    cMsg: cBody
});

Error Message: 

GeneralError: Operation failed.
Doc.mailDoc:22:AcroForm:Email Quote:Annot1:MouseUp:Action1

I've followed this guide and added a cBcc as they did in this community post, but it had no impact.

The fields are accurately named, and it prompts me to sign into my email account when I press the button, so I'm not sure what is causing the issue, and can't find documentation for mailDoc to help.

Your code is correct. This seems to be a bug when using Yahoo! to send the email. When I try to send it via Outlook or Gmail it works for me (and fails on Yahoo!).

You can find the javascript documentation here: http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/js_api_reference.pdf#G5.2237013
