You're welcome,
I guess we should clarify the manual about these parameters. Next on the todo: the manual...

Allen, Pat a écrit :
THANK YOU! I had the same problem. I am using CNAMEs for my virtual hosts and
they were getting resolved to the physical hostname of the system in the
reply-to address which would cause mail delivery issues. I had gone to the
extent of modifying my templates to manually set the reply-to address to the
address that I wanted to use. But setting the host robot parameter works much
better!

On second thought : Lists initialize their domain name using the "host" robot parameter. So it may be the reverse problem: host (robot) parameter badly defined or not defined at all (which would lead to use defaults).

Hi --

Can anyone tell me what's going on?

On lists that have the reply_to_header set to 'list', the Reply-To:
field is using the server's fqdn, when it should be using the virtual
domain. Any idea where I go to fix this?
I recently moved over to a different server, and am using 5.3.4.

Example:

To: address@concealed
From: address@concealed
Subject: [listname] Is this list active?
Reply-To: address@concealed
X-Loop: address@concealed


Thanks in advance!

Liam
