I have a shell script that generates simple emails by piping text (with To, From and Subject headers) to 'sendmail -t' (the postfix version). All is well with that except when a message bounces. The failure notice comes back to the user that ran the script. The script is run from cron under an administrative account. I would prefer to redirect bounces to a customer service agent that can deal with it. So I tried inserting "Return-Path: [EMAIL PROTECTED]" in the headers, but they still bounced to the script user. Same deal with inserting "Errors-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]".
I have verified that [EMAIL PROTECTED] is deliverable. In the first case, my manual Return-Path header was replaced with the script user address. In the second case, I can see my Errors-To header, but a Return-Path header is also inserted (by postfix/sendmail?) with the script user address. What am I doing wrong? http://www.postfix.org/sendmail.1.html says that Errors-To overrides command line options to sendmail, so why is it not heeded when no return path command line options are used? If possible, I would like the bounce address to be something that is not normally displayed by common mail clients. -- Jeff
