Bug ID: 22821
Summary: Patron notes about item email notification fallback
order is incorrect
Change sponsored?: ---
Product: Koha
Version: master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P5 - low
Component: OPAC
Assignee: oleon...@myacpl.org

Target Milestone: ---
In bug 19496 a fallback order for the email addresses (both to and from) was
added. This fallback order appears to be incorrect per my understanding of the
system preferences.
> my $to_address = $branch->branchemail || $branch->branchreplyto ||
> C4::Context->ReplytoDefault ||
> C4::Context->preference('KohaAdminEmailAddress');
My understanding is that branchemail is used for the 'from' address in emails
from the branch, however it may not be an address which is accessible by the
librarians (as to be allowed through spam filters for most popular email
service the 'from' address domain has to match the domain of the sender
server).. as such 'reply-to' address was added to allow for a library to send
'from' a proper domain but have 'replies' go to an email address they control.
> my $from_address = $patron->email || $patron->emailpro || $patron->B_email;
We cannot spoof send emails from the patrons email address for the same reasons
as outlined above. The email must come from the koha system but may happily
contain the above fallback in the reply-to header to achieve what I believe is
wanted.
