Hi,
just did set up some mail accounts for a new user and did realize
that
replies to an own message are being sent to the own address of the
original
sender rather than to the address of the original recipient.
This still works:
-----------------
1)
From: Michael Heydekamp <[email protected]>
Display name: Michael Heydekamp
Email: [email protected]
This does not work:
-------------------
2)
From: Michael Heydekamp <[email protected]>
Display name: Michael Heydekamp xxxxxx - xxxxxxx xxx xxxxxxx
Email: [email protected]
3)
From: Michael Heydekamp xxxxxx - xxxxxxx xxx xxxxxxx
<[email protected]>
Display name: Michael Heydekamp xxxxxx - xxxxxxx xxx xxxxxxx
Email: [email protected]
4)
From: =?UTF-8?Q?Michael_Heydekamp_xxxxxx_-_xxxxxxx_xxx_xxxxxxx?=
<[email protected]>
Display name: Michael Heydekamp
Email: [email protected]
Where "Display name" and "Email" are the relevant entries under
Settings/Identities, and "From:" is the From header of the message.
According to Example 2) above, Roundcube seems to check for the
display name
as well...? IMO, it shouldn't do that and check for the address only.
Example 3) is strange: Display names are identical, nonetheless the
routine
fails. Is the display name too long?
Example 4): Not sure if folded headers are the problem here.
Fix appreciated, as the user in question did already send a few
messages to
himself, relying on a working Reply-to-own-messages routine (and not
realizing the wrong recipient address).
Cheers,
I'm not a Roundcube dev, so my thoughts here should be taken with a
grain
of salt, but...
I'm not sure I see where this is something to fix in Roundcube. This
is
normal behavior when one replies to one's own message that was not
sent
through a listserv with a default Reply-To.
If the original sender is replying to their own message and wants the
reply to go to the original recipient, they should select to
"Reply-All",
as they would with any other mail client, and if necessary, drop
themselves from the "To" field.
Sorry, but you're wrong. Roundcube has a special routine to detect
replies
to an own message for ages already, and automatically inserts the
original
recipient in the To: header. Which is extremely convenient and
appreciated.
If that wouldn't be the case, even example 1) would not work. That it
works,
is a proof that this routine does exist. And you don't need to be a dev
to
know that. There were discussions about this here and there already.
The routine does just not work in cases 2), 3) and 4), and IMO this
need to
get fixed.
Cheers,
My apologies...I misunderstood the entirety of the initial request and
also found that you're right about the functionality.
I'll crawl back under my rock, now, and avoid coming out until I
actually know what I'm talking about.
