Letting users supply return-path is both reasonable and necessary. On the one hand, your MTA is in charge of checking the input (because any user can talk directly to it.) Mine (qmail) does, and so anything my MUA (MH) does is at best redundant. But in this case MH is actively causing problems, because it isn't enforcing the correct rules. qmail uses user-supplied return-path to set the envelope sender on outgoing messages (and removes the return-path header from the message.) That's perfectly sensible, and very nice. I use it all the time to convince mailing list software that checks the envelope that I'm posting from the address they have on file, for example. Similarly, if I complain about a spammer, I want my role account information to appear in the message, not any personal data that MH decides the spammer ought to know. It's very important to me that MH stop breaking this. Look, back in the ancient days there may have been novice users who used MH and were so utterly clueless that its rules prevented them from forging messages from [EMAIL PROTECTED] But these days the only people who use MH are grey haired experts. Society is in no way helped by having MH do extra work to trip them up. _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
