Package: sympa
Version: 6.1.7~dfsg-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
When configured for VERP (variable envelope return path) the outgoing
email envelope sender is supposed to be customized for each recipient.
Due to a bug in the code, the special return path is never applied,
and the email goes out with the list's generic envelope sender
<listname-owner@domain>.
This bug was discovered in version 6.1.1~dfsg-2 (Ununtu natty) but by
inspection of the source code the problem is still present in 6.1.7 .
Due to this part of the code having been rewritten for the upcoming
6.2 version, the problem is NOT present in upstream's 6.2a.4 .
Fix:
