Don't use envelope_from but set sendmail directly. AFAIK envelope_from does nothing but invokes sendmail with parameter -f <From:-Header> By setting sendmail directly you can call it with the -f paramater set freely, i.e. to your real email adress. This is independent from the setting of From: > Of course it wouldn't work if list servers identify subscribers by > From:, but it's a good start. Never heard this.
