Exactly. It's an unreliable header. So why use it?
I use sendmail + fetchmail + procmail + mutt. No Return-Path: header
found. Here's my full recipe for mutt-users. Mangle to taste (I use
mbox folders; ymmv):
:0 H
* ^TO_.*@mutt.org
* ^Sender:.*owner\-mutt\-users\@mutt\.org
{
:0
{ RULE="mutt users" }
:0:
IN.mutt
}
Apologies to members of the list who couldn't give a flying @#$%^
about procmail. Stuff like this really ought to go to procmail-users
(another very good list IMO).
