I think hermes now sends the messages with the person who did the change as sender, and not hermes.opensuse.org as before.
Oh it does that now? Great!
Except the problems it causes with the -contrib mailinglist ;-) and maybe also with domains/servers using/checking SPF records (depends on the envelope-From)
This one problem should not stop us from sending useful mails I think ;) I'm sure it can be solved without blocking this important feature. It is important because it is quite essential for the collaboration and the communication aspect of it. Commit mails encourage code reviews. Although, looking into my mailbox, I saw today that the commit emails sender are still "hermes". I see no change there.
Oh, no... Please don't go back to the meaningless (and useless) sender address!
Cf. https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=438621 and https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=445409
These two bugs could also be solved by putting the submitter in the Reply-To header. That's less visible, but works. (You can also put the submitter in the body to solve the "less visible" part.)
Well, why "solve" something that has been solved thousands of times before? Most commit mailing lists that I know of fill in the sender. It doesn't necessarily need to be a real email address (which is often not known to the version control system). This seems to work out of the box with the usual svn commit mails and at least some commit mailing lists that I know of. Maybe a nomails subscription for the sender is needed, I don't know. I suppose it depends a little bit on mail server / mailing list configuration also.
Another solution would be to open the contrib mailinglist to mails from the hermes server (IP-based) even if the sender is not subscribed.
I am not sure that this would be needed... but who knows... Anyway, the commit mail sender needs to be able to post on the list. And it probably doesn't take a miracle to make it work ;)
Or do an automated nomail-subscription to contrib for every buildservice user - this would give contrib lots of subscribers *g,d&r*
BTW: Does mlmmj look at the envelope-From or the header-From?
Hm, it seems to look at both. I just tried it and I can't post if I change the RFC822 header.
