Months ago I reported that randomly, a member would not get the confirmation email from FUD, even if they resent it.

I recently got an email from a member

Quote:

I cannot receive emails (such as forum account activations) from you
because the domain of the email address listed in the From field does not
resolve. It is standard practice to reject such emails as it is a
regular spam tactic. I hope you will take steps to correct this as I
desire very much to begin using your service.

--Full Error Message--
Mar 27 00:50:40 sendmail[353]: h2R7oYHs000353: ruleset=check_mail,
arg1=<apache(at)server1(dot)ccgworkshop(dot)com>, relay=[216.110.45.110], reject=553
5.1.8 <apache(at)server1(dot)ccgworkshop(dot)com>... Domain of sender address
apache(at)server1(dot)ccgworkshop(dot)com does not exist

So how can I set this replyTo field? Strange how its using the owner of the process as the reply to address...

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Could this be a setting in the php.ini?

Add:

Reply To: email_address as the last argument to
send_email() in register.php.t

I found 3 send_email calls in that file, all have an ending parameter like this:

... "");

So I stuck my reply-to address into the empty quotes.

Do I have to recompile the .t file or anything to make the forum recognize the change?

you don't enter your address but you enter the complete header, since the extra field is there for specifying additional headers. So if you wanted the reply to address to appear as foo(at)bar(dot)com, you'd put
'Reply-To: foo(at)bar(dot)com'
in that field.

After making changes you need to recompile the theme.
