So, my question is: why don't you set SENDER='[EMAIL PROTECTED]' or SENDER='[EMAIL PROTECTED]' or something similar if SENDER variable is empty?In that case, if user's forward is broken, then Courier is trying to deliver a DSN message to a postmaster, not to a user with not working forward. I think it's reasonable solution, because information about broken user's forward is valuable for mail system administrator. What's your opinion?
Yes, I think that's reasonable. The original reason for resetting the return address would be to be notified if forwarded mail bounces. I expected people to set up forwarding rules carefully, and take care not to indiscriminantly forward all mail, rather only ones that match narrow filtering criteria.
But I suppose that's too much to expect, from people, so I guess this will have to change. I'll change the return address on forwarded mail to a null address, which will bounce to the postmaster's mailbox automatically.
