Forum OpenACS Q&A: Re: ns_sendmail replacement?

Collapse
Posted by Bart Teeuwisse on

A related problem is that ns_sendmail (in aolserver/modules/tcl/sendmail.tcl) discards everything but the <notification-56476-2960@openacs.org> part of an e-mail address.

The notifications package is configured to send out messages from [address_domain] mailer <[reply_address_prefix]@[address_domain]. In the case of OpenACS these messages would show up as coming from 'OpenACS mailer' if it wasn't for ns_sendmail.

My vote goes to 'fixing' ns_sendmail, adding a Reply-To header to notifications and replacing the from address with the name and e-mail of the poster (for forums).

Bart, you said you have a fix for this? I would like to use it, but actually not for forums but for notifications-enabled news.

Do you have a patch or something?

TIA
