Now, having said what I said above, can you point out to me ANY e-mail message which has come to this forum that has a REPLY-TO field in it?
This one, where I unsuccessfully attempted to divert the conversation to a more appropriate list: Message-Id: <200608150938.47561.william@gallaf.net> Of course, this didn't help people who configure their systems not to honour this header.
I can't see one in any of the messages I have looked at. To me that means that the author/sender did *not* have this field in his/her original message and therefore *this* (SuSE) server can add this field to all the e-mails which arrive in this forum.
Since the SuSE server is not the author of the message, it does not have that right. From, Sender and Reply-To all refer to the _originator_ of the message, not to any system which resends it.
End of story :-) .
You wish ;)
