--- Comment #46 from Ben Cooksley <bcooks...@kde.org> --- This will be my very final correspondence on this issue. In regards to email standards, they're not relevant here. What commonly used email providers dictate as being required is relevant, as what people care about is getting their email in a readable form. The RFCs and other material are just a guideline towards that. Oh, and DMARC is an RFC, so it's part of the standards. GMail, followed by Yahoo are our top destinations for email delivery. So they set the rules. In regards to the solutions you proposed, they either: a) Impacted upon the reliability of Bugzilla service; or b) Significantly increased the maintenance burden Sysadmin would face to maintain Bugzilla. And we have enough maintenance workload as it stands. Plus we'd have to author the change in the first place, and Bugzilla is written in Perl. And in case you are wondering - every other bug tracking system out there, including vanilla Bugzilla, follows the behaviour we follow now. Our previous behaviour was a hack, added in many, many years ago, and which is not able to be continued with, due to the issues noted previously. This issue is far from being ignored. It has been looked into and discussed here for a very long time. The behaviour the system now follows is known, and is the desired and correct behaviour. I have no idea why your workflow requires / demands filtering based on commenter/reporter email address (in which case, may I suggest headers in the email which Bugzilla includes), but it is no longer something we can accommodate using the From field in an email. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
