I appreciate your patience while we're fixing the issue. This thread is still open if you have more questions about your invoices or other transactions in QuickBooks Online. I'm here to help.
I have resolved this issue after an online chat with Support.
In my case it appears that it all stems from trying to send copy invoices to another email address, whether by ticking the 'Email me a copy at' box (Gear Icon/Account & Settings/Sales/Messages (Default email message sent with sales forms), or by entering an email address there in either the Cc or the Bcc box. Even ticking the 'Send me a copy' box in the Send dialog has the same effect.
I have given feedback about this so hopefully someone at QuickBooks will get this corrected sometime!

Hello PuntaConejo, thanks for joining this thread - our previous investigation for the delivery error has now been resolved. If you're still seeing this, please get back to us below with a screenshot of the error and the app version that you're using. If you're using the web, please check that the error is consistent across more than one web browser.
Delivery Error: Your email subject contains invalid characters or emojis. Please remove those before sending.
Shared my screen with customer support yesterday so they have a recording on file.
Tried different browsers, mac, PC, I phone app.
All of the above does not work when sending out email invoices.
We have been sending out invoices the same way for 5+ years without a problem.
Please help us fix this issue.
I know this hasn't been an easy process for you, PuntaConejo. Allow me to chime in and ensure you'll get the best help available so this gets sorted out for you.
When sending invoices to the customer through QuickBooks, you'll want to ensure there are no unwanted other characters entered from the email subject. This way, it would help us rectify the unusual behavior when sending invoices to your customers.
If the issue persists, I'd suggest reaching out to our Customer Care Team. They have the tools to check into your account and create a new investigation ticket if necessary.

Wow this comment is so accurate. I just talked with 2 different support agents, the first one just ended the chat on me and the second went on and on asking me to troubleshoot it myself. Quickbooks is supposed to speed up my business workflow and instead I waste hours upon hours troubleshooting bugs and wasting time with useless customer service.
