I simply cannot win.... I finally was able to get gmail to not spam
every email I send to it by routing my outbound traffic through Amazon's
Simple Email Service (SES) gateway. As soon as I got that configured
and working, I realized that all of the apache forums now reject all
posts sent via SES. I've tried posting to the james forums and to tomcat
forums. No luck. I now get a bounce saying I need to send posts from a
subscribed email address. It turns out that SES replaces the
Return-Path header with a cryptic (dynamic) SES email address so that
they can monitor bounces and complaints. Apparently, apache forums use
return-path to validate subscribers to forums. If this is really the
case, I'm curious why no one else has encountered this issue. So I'm
assuming I'm missing something. Currently, I have two james
instances... one with the SES gateway configured and one without. I
toggle to the non-SES instance to post to apache and toggle back
afterwards. Not exactly an elegant solution.... :-( I guess I'm going
to have to resubscribe to all of my apache forums through a gmail
account which is really ugly IMHO.
Am I missing something? Is there some additional header I can add to
apache forum posts to tell the forum to pull my subscribed email address
from a different header?
Thx
