John Bester updated JAMES-2519:
-------------------------------
Description:
To get around issues where remote delivery does not work (relay denied), I have
configured email clients to use the SMTP server directly and move sent items to
James SENT folder. While this works, it does have a strange side effect. If you
send an item to an external recipient and CC to a recipient in the domain
handled by James, then multiple copies of the sent item ends up in SENT folder.
While this might look like a email client problem, I would have expected this
to have happened before switching to James. So, my guess is the following
happens:
1. You send a message to external recipient and CC to internal recipient (email
client uses external SMTP server)
2. Email client copies mail to SENT folder
3. Fetchmail retrieves a copy from external POP3 server
4. Fetchmail interprets "FROM" address and stores it in SENT folder of sender
