The return-path on my notification emails is coming as nobody(at)mymachine(dot)mysite(dot)com which is the webserver user. The code

     mail($to, $subj, str_replace("\r", "", $body), "From: ".$from."\nErrors-To: ".$from."\nReturn-Path: ".$from."\nX-Mailer: FUDforum v".$GLOBALS['FORUM_VERSION'].$header.$bcc);

seems to suggest it shoudl be the same as the from. Is this the case? It is a problem as AOL will reject emails with return path as nobody@ www@ etc...

Are you using SMTP settings by any chance?

No.

I 'fixed' the issue for me by changing my php.ini to have

sendmail_path = "sendmail -t -i -F forums(at)mydomain(dot)com -f forums(at)mydomain(dot)com"

Not the best way mind Smile

Well, as far as I can tell the forum does set the return-path header...

Fair enough. Must have been something peculiar to my install. I take it this isn't a PHP/Postfix issue?

nope, as you can tell from the code header is being set. Perhaps it is being stripped? Have you checked what is your forum admin account e-mail in GLOBAL settings?

Yeah, the funny thing is it is just in the return-path. All the other uses of ADMIN_EMAIL work fine Smile
