Change Reply-To email address

Hi

A while ago I enquired how to set the Reply-To field in the email header to something other than the default email address. I received a reply to that which indicated that in the config.pm file I should add the address in the 'Reply-To' entry (at around line 4364) in place of the undef value. I have done that.

In line 4049 (approx?) the entry "add_reply_to   => 1," appears - I am presuming that the digit 1 indicates that the field is to be included in the email header.

I have now had chance to test this out and I have to report that the Reply-To field still contains the default email address.

Is there some other place that this information is included as a variable - clearly the scripts are picking up the default address rather than the required address.

Failing that, where abouts in the scripts can I hard code the address so that the required address gets included rather than the default one?

As an aside, adjacent to the Reply-To information in the config.pm file ther is the return path field. Placing a value in here in place of the undef value results in the specified email address getting included.

This problem is becoming quite an issue because, even though a line is included in the mailings which says "don't click on the reply to button on the email programme", a not insignificant number of people are ignoring this.


Best regards
