Return Path not returning to the bounces address

 
From: "John Collins" <john@PROTECTED>
Date: October 13th 2008
Mystery Girl, the Bounce Handler was high on my list of favorite things about Dadamail.

But something has gone weirdly wrong.  When I send out to my sizeable list (about 19,000), the bounces are coming back to my Reply-To address (same as the From address) and not the Return-Path address.

I have set the Return-Path field to a different address: bounces@PROTECTED, but the bounces are not going to this address.  I have tested the bounces@ address by sending and retrieving emails and it's working fine.  The problem seems to be in Dadamail somewhere.

It was working fine up until a few months ago.  The only thing that might have changed was my host updated the version of PERL on the server.  The current version is 5.8.8.

I have been using Dadamail version 2.10.16 Pro for quite some time.  It was working fine since it was introduced so I didn't see a reason to update.

Under "Basic Sending Options"  I do not have the SMTP box checked.

Under "Advanced Sending Options" I have checked
Print list-specific headers
Add the Sendmail 'f' flag
Print the Return-path header in list emails

Not checked are
VERP
Tune Mail Sending
Use Habeas
Under Misc options these are unchecked.
Send all emails etc
Print the 'Errors-To' header (I tried checking this with the bounce@ address and it made no difference.

I've looked on your site and in the Magic Book and can't find and answer to this one.  Or most likely I just missed it.

Thanks,
