When Bryan mentions the "envelope" I believe he is talking about things at an SMTP level (that would conventional usage anyway). > Even if it did change any of the "envelope" headers the final MUA > shouldn't take any notice of them since they are meant to be used by the > MTAs to correctly aim bounces back to the correct person (i.e. if *you* > redirect it to a bad address, the originator shouldn't get the error > message, *you* should). As you say, MTAs further up stream *will* look at the envelope and thus he needs enough control over it to say that it should be as it was before. I believe he wants the original sender to receive these error messages and not receive them himself. "Bounce" has very valid use cases, they're just not used by most people most of the time. -- Sam http://samason.me.uk/ _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
