Matt, I've seen this behavior and wondered if that behavior was legit. But it didn't seem to have any adverse effect and so I moved on to other things. Admittedly, I didn't test the behavior of all mailers in the wild though...
Can somebody definitively point to the SMTP spec for addressing and the Return-Path to confirm this is unacceptable? My gut says it's unacceptable, and you've now reinforced my belief. But a definitive reference would be good. -Chris > Feb 2, 1:03 am, Matt Jones <al2o...@gmail.com> wrote: > Ran into this a while back, but hadn't gotten around to putting it on > Lighthouse. > > http://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994-ruby-on-rails/tickets/1842 > > In short, the SMTP delivery handler adds an extra set of <>s to the > address specified > in the Return-Path header when sending the SMTP MAIL FROM command. > The needed change is 5 characters on a single line. > > Anyone else run into this?
