I have suse-9.2 system being used to educate people about email. We use kmail for this and they can only send email to the people on the suse machine. The machine has the name (let's say) mickei. No when I set the reply-to address in kmail to 'roes@mickei' this is altered by the post system to 'roes@domain.test' (where domain.test is an example, but it illustrates the fqdn of the machine). In the kmail's outbox the message header looks as: From: Nobody <roes@mickei> Reply-To: roes@mickei To: test@mickei That looks good to me. So I think it is actually postfix that alters the reply address from roes@mickei to roes@domain.test. Does anyone know a setting that tells postfix to leave the reply-to field alone, so in my case the reply-to remains set to roes@mickei? -- TIA Richard Bos Without a home the journey is endless
check /etc/postfix/main.cf, masquerade_domains should be set to the domain which you want to reply to. Lisa Richard Bos wrote:

Thanks. I solved it differently: just include the hostname in domain (hmmm does that make it a fqdn? => in that case I did not provide the correct information in my question :( Anyway sending email to roes@mickei.domain.test (as example solved it) -- Richard Bos Without a home the journey is endless

I seriously doubth that. Reply-to is in the body of the message as far as Postfix is concerned, and as all good MTAs, Postfix doesn't touch the body, unless it's neccessary for the propagation over SMTP. Can you try to telnet to that Postfix server to see if it actually does what you think? You could also up the debug level of the smtpd and maybe the cleanup processes to see what they do.

No need for such a setting. Theo -- Theo v.

I think you are right. I'd say that it is kmail who is doing that change. - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFCr2sGtTMYHG2NR9URApzPAJkB6ZUwUeHlGT6jKOUZF9RHK+rZ4QCeLWp2 9NKITgyfrvv0WzbJcFWPmG8= =54oS -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
