Re: How to set sending e-mail address?

Return-path is used by mail daemons, not usually shown in client emails That's what From or Reply-to is for... Return-path is valuable for capturing bounces and stuff. I always set it to a bounce@ alias, and then the From: is always the friendly "display" address. I also use popen() to open a connection directly to my sendmail binary (/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -f -i bounce@returnpathaddressishere.com) it seems to act instantly where I've had some oddities with PHP's mail() in the past.
