Mail step: Using variable as destination address causes Invalid Address error

Posted this on the Vantara community page but thought it would be worth a shot here too

Just wondering if anyone else has come across this problem

I have a job that generates a user's email by getting the user who last modified an excel file. I then set this address as a variable called USER_EMAIL. I then have ${USER_EMAIL} in the destination box of the mail step.

If I run the job directly in PDI, it works fine. I created a bat file in order to schedule the job using Windows task scheduler. If I launch the bat file directly, it also works fine however if Task scheduler opens it, I get an Invalid Address error. It appears that the variable is not being substituted

This is the error from the log:

Code:
