[PATCH v2 2/2] send-email: Support separate Reply-To address

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In some projects contributions from groups are only accepted from a
common group email address. But every individual may want to recieve
replies to her own personal address. That's what we have 'Reply-To'
headers for in SMTP.

Introduce an optional '--reply-to' command line option. Unfortunately
the $reply_to variable name was already taken for the 'In-Reply-To'
header field. To reduce code churn, use $reply_address as variable
name instead.
