Re: #email #email

 

It's not clear to me what her process is.

hi Larry,
agreed. But Ann¡¯s problem seems to be that her ?from¡° address gets modified. That should be completely under her own control when using the local email client, and sending directly to someone else (not via ). Including her ?reply to¡° address - it¡¯s something that would be set on the local machine. Or am I overlooking something here?

Hi Ann,
what email client are you using, and on what type of machine (Mac/Windows/Linux/¡­)? It sounds very hard to believe that your email client should modify your ?from¡° address when sending directly, unless you have set it like that yourself in the email client settings, or are sending to ??and not to the person¡¯s personal email address.

Kind regards
Thomas
Thomas, that's actually incorrect. All Mail User Agents (MUA) honor a header that's usually not visible called "Reply-To:" For example, the headers might be:
From:Thomas.Gruber@...
To:TGolding@...
Reply-To: TomG@...

When TGolding receives this message, she won't see the Reply-To, but when she selects Reply, the message will display TomG, not Thomas.Gruber in her MUA.
