http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19141 <mail> should have "reply-to" attribute Summary: <mail> should have "reply-to" attribute Product: Ant Version: 1.5.3 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows NT/2K Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: Other Component: Core tasks AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I use the <mail> task in Ant 1.5.3. to send emails. The sender is a non-existing, symbolic mail account like "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". Now if a mail doesn't get delivered it bounces back to the (non-existing) sender which is bad. For exactly this case, emails have a "reply-to" attribute to which replies and bouncing emails go to. I've used it in plain Javamail in the past. With "reply-to", I could keep the symbolic sender and have the replies directed to my email address. I suggest that a future version of Ant supports the "reply-to" attribute for the <mail> task.
