"Received: from foo.example.com" means that foo.example.com is a sender for this message. It doesn't seem to give reliable information about the receiver. One option would be for you to customize the output of notmuch-reply in Emacs. I think the package message-templ (unfortunately only in marmalade, debian, and my git repo) provides tools that could help with that. If you want to investigate it's at: http://pivot.cs.unb.ca/git?p=message-templ.git;a=summary There may well be better tools for message-mode. d ___ notmuch mailing list notmuch@notmuchmail.org https://notmuchmail.org/mailman/listinfo/notmuch

I'm not sure my company would let me send you even headers of the email. What I can tell is that my email address does not appear in the headers (I had a look at notmuch-reply.c/guess_from_in_received_headers()). I can't really blame notmuch for not finding it then :-). But, the domain name of my email address appears in many occasions: - in the Received: field (which looks like " from: ") - in the To: field (the mailing list is hosted under the same domain) - in the From: field (the user who sent the email has an email in the same domain) Unfortunately, there is no Received: field with a " by " matching my domain.

Guess 'From:' when doing notmuch reply
Hi, notmuch-always-prompt-for-sender is a variable defined in ‘notmuch-mua.el’ whose documentation is > Always prompt for the From: address when composing or forwarding a > message. This is not taken into account when replying to a message, > because in that case the From: header is already filled in by > notmuch. Unfortunately, notmuch always got the From: field wrong when replying to a (microsoft-exchange hosted) mailing list. The result of this is that I always answer with the incorrect email address resulting in an error message from the mailing list a few minutes after. Is there anything I can do to make notmuch properly guess the From: field? -- Damien Cassou http://damiencassou.seasidehosting.st "Success is the ability to go from one failure to another without losing enthusiasm." --Winston Churchill ___ notmuch mailing list notmuch@notmuchmail.org https://notmuchmail.org/mailman/listinfo/notmuch
