Are you sure your smtp server is working *properly*? It looks like it's
doing header mangaling...adding helices_pop_server_domain.com to the end of
your e-mail headers. The mail command on LRP uses your default FQDN to
create the headers, so they should be of the form:
From: <user>@<FQDN>
You can see what LRP thinks your hostname is by running "hostname -f". This
is what should be after the "@" if you haven't modified anything. You can
override the FQDN setting using either the lrp_MAIL_DOMAIN setting in
lrp.conf or the -d switch to the mail command.
If the above looks correct, and you refuse to believe your mail server is
causing problems, you can uncomment the debugging output of the mail
command. Find the following line in the mail procedure and remove the
leading #:
# eecho "$state: $nrep $line"
This will cause the mail script to dump it's conversation with your smtp
server to err out. You should be able to see if it's sending the correct or
bogus From: and Reply-to: headers. This will at least tell you for sure if
your LRP system is broken, or if there's something wacky with your smtp
server config...
