-----------------------------------
Summary: Bouncer should pass DSN to bounce processor
Key: JAMES-4006
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-4006
Project: James Server
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Matchers/Mailets (bundled)
Affects Versions: master, 3.8.1
Reporter: Karsten Otto
The Bouncer utility currently ignores all mails without a regular sender
address, which includes the null sender <> as used by DSNs. This is correct
when bouncing via the mailet context, i.e. generating a bounce mail from the
original. However, when there is a specified bounce processor, this should get
the original mail as it is. So in this case the Bouncer must _not_ ignore null
sender mails.
Background: I use the bounce processor to handle temporary delivery failures,
by storing them in a mail repository, and reprocessing them periodically via
Webadmin. Obviously I would like to handle DSNs in the same manner, but
currently they get dropped after the first failure.
With this change, other use cases will have to handle null sender mails in the
bounce processor if necessary, e.g. via the IsNullSender matcher. Note that the
Bounce mailet as a likely candidate already ignores null sender mails by
default, without any additional configuration.
