As required by Internet mail standards (RFC 5321, 2821, 821) delivery status notifications (success, delay, failure) must be sent with the null Return-Path address. This is not negotiable. If you are using software that mis-handles email wuth the null Return-Path address, then that software does not fully support Internet email. I suggest replacing or updating it, or not exposing it to Internet email. Wietse
