Greetings. I'm having a weird problem with qmail and majordomo. The "Return-Path" header on messages sent to a majordomo list is not being set properly, and I can't seem to figure out why. The list is named "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". The system user is "webacct" and so the majordomo forwarding takes place in .qmail files in that user's home directory, named ".qmail-developer" and ".qmail-developer-owner" and so on. The "owner" alias forwards to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" (that's me). In one post, the following header was present: Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> In another: Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> In both cases there was an invalid e-mail address on the list and so when it tried to bounce, the bounce bounced. I've included a full e-mail message example below. My configuration is T-Tom Terrific as far as I can tell, and the majordomo code doesn't seem to explicitly set that header anywhere that I can find. I'm assuming it's related to the kludgy way of dealing with having a "-" in the list name, but can't really point to the exact problem. Any ideas?
