Hello all,

I'd like to ask if anyone is aware of any reason not to disable the setting of the "Precedence :Bulk" header when an account has multiple forwarding addresses.

I ask this because some software (RT in my case) looks for that particular header in order to decide if it should process the message or not.

I belive i've identified the place where that's set. In qmail-local.c, line 444 reads:

if (recips[1])
  qmail_puts(&qqt,"Precedence: bulk\n");

i.e. .. if there are more than 1 recipient (recips[0]), add the bulk header. (if i understood correctly).

If there is no harm in not using that tag, even with multiple recipients, couldn't that be set to be enabled/disabled with an env var like NOBULK or SETBULK?

Note: this is qmail-ldap only feature, since stock qmail doesn't set these headers.

Please advise,

Hugo Monteiro.
