As you can see there is no original phpBB's Return-Path line.
I speak about line from file /includes/functions_messenger.php
$headers[] = 'Reply-To: ' . $this->replyto;
|
$headers[] = 'Return-Path: <' . $config['board_email'] . '>';
|
$headers[] = 'Sender: <' . $config['board_email'] . '>';
|
This happens as I see because you don't use -f <> option for sendmail as many others coders and scripts uses.
For example from vBulletin software:
if (!SAFEMODE AND $this->registry->options['needfromemail'])
|
{
|
$result = @mail($this->toemail, $this->subject, $this->message, trim($this->headers), '-f ' . $this->fromemail);
|
}
|
else
|
{
|
$result = @mail($this->toemail, $this->subject, $this->message, trim($this->headers));
|
}
|
In FreeBSD mail config files /etc/mail there is such string:
H?P?Return-Path: <$g>
The explanation for this line:
This line defines a field called Return-Path: that displays the contents of the $g macro (sender address relative to the receiver). The ?P? portion indicates that this line is only used if the mailer uses the P flag (the mailer requires a Return-Path line).
So if no -f <> option is used for sendmail and there will be any Return-Path: string in mail headers
then it will be replaces with sendmails own Return-Path: string via code:
H?P?Return-Path: <$g>
