i tried the following: $ echo this is a test | /usr/sbin/sendmail prvs=1254408a08=simeon_...@stud.phzh.ch and that's the result: Oct 2 18:54:03 ares postfix/pickup[17132]: 252D12C64B1: uid=0 from=<root> Oct 2 18:54:03 ares postfix/cleanup[17716]: 252D12C64B1: message-id=<20111002165403.252d12c6...@ares.intra.example.com> Oct 2 18:54:03 ares postfix/qmgr[14003]: 252D12C64B1: from=<r...@ares.intra.example.com>, size=311, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Oct 2 18:54:04 ares postfix/smtpd[17721]: initializing the server-side TLS engine Oct 2 18:54:04 ares postfix/smtpd[17721]: connect from localhost[127.0.0.1] Oct 2 18:54:04 ares postfix/smtpd[17721]: 1795B2C64AC: client=localhost[127.0.0.1] Oct 2 18:54:04 ares postfix/cleanup[17716]: 1795B2C64AC: message-id=<20111002165403.252d12c6...@ares.intra.example.com> Oct 2 18:54:04 ares postfix/qmgr[14003]: 1795B2C64AC: from=<r...@ares.intra.example.com>, size=1012, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Oct 2 18:54:04 ares postfix/smtpd[17721]: disconnect from localhost[127.0.0.1] Oct 2 18:54:04 ares amavis[14768]: (14768-11) Passed CLEAN, <r...@ares.intra.example.com> -> <prvs=1254408a08=simeon_...@stud.phzh.ch>, Message-ID: <20111002165403.252d12c6...@ares.intra.example.com>, mail_id: tHQF5WA-fWx1, Hits: -0.102, size: 311, queued_as: 1795B2C64AC, 1033 ms Oct 2 18:54:04 ares postfix/smtp[17717]: 252D12C64B1: to=<prvs=1254408a08=simeon_...@stud.phzh.ch>, relay=127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]:10024, delay=1.3, delays=0.21/0.01/0.01/1, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 2.0.0 Ok, id=14768-11, from MTA([127.0.0.1]:10025): 250 2.0.0 Ok: queued as 1795B2C64AC) Oct 2 18:54:04 ares postfix/qmgr[14003]: 252D12C64B1: removed Oct 2 18:54:05 ares postfix/smtp[17722]: 1795B2C64AC: to=<prvs=1254408a08=simeon_...@stud.phzh.ch>, relay=mail.messaging.microsoft.com[65.55.88.22]:25, delay=0.98, delays=0.14/0.03/0.38/0.43, dsn=2.6.0, status=sent (250 2.6.0 <20111002165403.252d12c6...@ares.intra.example.com> [InternalId=25661879] Queued mail for delivery) Oct 2 18:54:05 ares postfix/qmgr[14003]: 1795B2C64AC: removed that's what i'm looking for. does this mean that GNARWL is doing something wrong when batv encoded addresses are used? i asked patrick ahlbrecht, the author of GNARWL prior to posting this question here on the postfx-users mailinglist. "[...] theres no way to teach the address parser about it (short of rewriting the cleanAddress() function). Also, there is no way to configure gnarwl to use a different header field. Easiest option is probably to patch mailhandler.c to look for the X-Envelope-From instead of the FROM header. In line 94, simply replace the (!strcasecmp("from",tmp[0]) with (!strcasecmp("x-envelope-from",tmp[0])" ... i thought there has to be another option beside from patching sources of a debian stable package. thanks for your help
