Package: request-tracker3.4
Version: 3.4.4-1

Mail from Request Tracker has the header:

Sender: "www-data" <[email protected]>
From: "[email protected] via RT" <[email protected]>

It would be better if the Sender field wasn't included, or it was the
same as the From field. Some MUAs interpret use the Sender field over
the From field and this be confusing to our customers.

I am using sendmailpipe as the devilery method.


The manual has:
------
What's that Sender: header, and how do I make it go away?

   The Sender header is probably being added by one of 2 things.  The
perl Mail::Internet module insists on adding it;  and it's generally
added by the MTA if the sender is setting a From. So if your apache and
rt run as user www-data, you'll likely end up with headers something
like this:

From: Queue  <rt-qu...@domain>
Sender:  <www-d...@domain>

   You can avoid Mail::Internet by using sendmailpipe as the delivery
message (an option in config.pm).

Hi Brett,

It looks like this bug report you sent to Debian was never looked at
when it came in. However I can say that newer versions of RT do not
set such a header.

Because request-tracker3.4 is now a very old package (and etch will
receive no more stable updates) I'm going to close this bug.

Dominic.
