Re: [racket-users] Setting return address in Racket's sendmail

[Marc Kaufmann]

Thanks, the smtp works, and it seems that sendmail actually does work even
the way I used it, but the email I used landed in spam, because google
realized it hadn't been sent from that account (since I was bypassing it,
unlike the smtp solution, which logs into the account first).

Matthew, regarding your point, the #f actually gets replaced by sendmail by
the email address associated with the account (which needs to be set), so
that wasn't the issue.

Best,
Marc

Gmail is a PITA.  It drove me crazy last year testing email code for my 
web application - the deployment system had a local SMTP service to use, 
but my development system didn't.



Gmail is very critical of the message format - it has to be (more or 
less) 100% correct.  If there are any errors in the message string you 
are very likely to get rejected.


No matter what "from" address you specify, the address that appears in 
the received email will that of the Gmail user.  The specified address 
appears in an extra header - "X-Google-Original-From" - but the receiver 
will never see that unless they look for it.   I have not tried using a 
"reply-to" header with Gmail.


Also, AFAIK, Gmail's SMTP server does require the domain of the 
authorized user: e.g., "foob...@gmail.com".  I was not able to make it 
work otherwise.  I think this is because there are both @gmail.com and 
@google.com addresses that it recognizes.
