[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-570?page=comments#action_12422080 ] Soren Hilmer commented on JAMES-570: ------------------------------------
The current SMTP specification is in (http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2821.html). It has a lot more detail on this subject in section 4.4 > James insert a Return-Path: null in outgoing email > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: JAMES-570 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-570 > Project: James > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Norman Maurer > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 2.3.0b4 > > > At the moment james insert a Return-Path: null to outgoing emails. That is > not correct. On outgoing emails no Return-Path should be insert. > From RFC (http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc821.html): > When the receiver-SMTP makes the "final delivery" of a > message it inserts at the beginning of the mail data a > return path line. The return path line preserves the > information in the <reverse-path> from the MAIL command. > Here, final delivery means the message leaves the SMTP > world. Normally, this would mean it has been delivered to > the destination user, but in some cases it may be further > processed and transmitted by another mail system. > We have also to get sure what todo if there is allready one ( should never > happen). Should we keep the header or strip it. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
