Hello,

I am trying to install qcontrol on my mail server (finally totally fed up
with the level of junk email)...  The tool I am trying to use is qcontrol
(for qmail servers), but that's not really important... What is important
is how it works, basically, it's a system which requires that individuals
who want to email you must reply to a confirmation email before being
allowed to deliver email to my account..

So if you were to send an email to me the system would require you to
first reply to an acknowledgement email which gets set out...

The email looks something like this (just to give you an idea):

---------
Hello, this is the qconfirm mail-handling program. One or more messages
from you are being held because your address was not recognized.

To release your pending message(s) for delivery, please reply to this
request. Your reply will not be read, so an empty message is fine.

If you do not reply to this request, your message(s) will eventually be
returned to you, and will never be delivered to the envelope recipient.

This confirmation verifies that your message(s) are legitimate and not
junk-mail.

Regards, the qconfirm program, http://smarden.org/qconfirm/
---------

All of this seems to be working fine, but it appears that Powermail is,
for some reason, truncating the "reply address"...

Here's a sample header from the above email:

------------------ RFC822 Header Follows ------------------
Return-Path: <>
Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Received: (qmail 16034 invoked by uid 89); 29 Jul 2003 12:22:29 -0000
Date: 29 Jul 2003 12:22:29 -0000
Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
From: "qconfirm" <net-virtual.com-gsaylor2-qconfirm-
[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: Please confirm your message
-----------------------------------------------------------

However, when I use Powermails "reply" feature the message sits in a
"Sending" status forever...  I noticed in looking in the "to" line it
only has "<net-virtual.com-gsaylor2-qconfirm-
[EMAIL PROTECTED]>"..

Does anyone know what is going on?.. Is this a bug in Powermail?..

Thanks!
