Hi,
I use Exim4 with Sarge and have a little configuration problem regarding
mail headers.
What should I do in order to have "Return-path" and "Sender" headers added
by Exim to be exactly the same as the "From" header created by my mail
client ?
If my question isn't clear enough, please read on for more explanations.
I have several email addresses and I can choose the one to use from my
mail client (usually kmail) ; that address is written in the "From"
header. But then Exim add "Return-path" and "Sender" headers containing
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Thus my mail headers are like these :
From : [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Return-path : [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Sender : [EMAIL PROTECTED]
but what I want is
From : [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Return-path : [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Sender : [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I know I can add
eddy : [EMAIL PROTECTED]
in the /etc/email-addresses
but then when I'll chose (from within my mail client) to use
[EMAIL PROTECTED] the headers will be
From : [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Return-path : [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Sender : [EMAIL PROTECTED]
while in that case I'd rather have
From : [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Return-path : [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Sender : [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Writing
eddy: use_whatever_is_in_the_from_path
in /etc/email-addresses won't work (would it?) but that's basicly what I'd
like to achieve.
Please don't tell me to RTFM, I've done that and am lost.
I found out that adding myself to the trusted users suppress the "Sender"
header entirely but the 'bad' "Return-path" persists.
I've tried to use "return_path_add = false" or "return_path_remove =
true" in the exim config files but it didn't work. (Anyway, I suppose I
do need a return-path, don't I ? )
Thanks for any help.
