Hi,
I'nm trying to create a shared mailbox using Postfix and Dovecot. The part of the mailbox itself is pretty simple, just define the namespace in dovecot and that's all. Postfix is another history.
What I'm trying to do is something I've seen a lot of times in corporate mail: emails are sent "on behalf of". The idea is that users send their emails from the shared mailbox address ("foo@mydomain.com") but with the "sender" joe@mydomain.com. At the end, clients see that the mail was sent by "joe@mydomain.com on behalf of foo@mydomain.com"). Now, users send emails from the shared mailbox but there's no way to [easily] know which of the users that have access to the mailbox did actually sent the email.
So, does anyone know how can I achieve this?
Well, to start with, how mails are sent has little to do with how the mailboxes are managed. Second, I suspect the "... on behalf of ..." idea is mail-client specific. I don't think I've ever seen it in Thunderbird for instance. Any user can send an email from a made up address - in Thunderbird, you just add another identity. I think you need to look in a mail that produces what you want ("... on behalf of ..."), and then figure out which headers it is that affect it. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (1.1°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free DNS hosting, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
