The return patch is "Return-Path: > <redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx>". This is how it should be. Which is exactly what I said. The From (dtyler) address does not match the Return-Path address (redhat-list-bounces).

You're the one using Outlook, not me :-). I looked at the headers I received in the final message. There are, however, 2 From addresses. There's the envelope from and the message from, and they could be different. That could be what we're talking about here. > -----Original Message----- > From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] > On Behalf Of Ed Wilts > Sent: Tuesday, July 20, 2004 8:45 AM > To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list > Subject: Re: configuring sendmail to reject spoofed email addresses > > On Tue, Jul 20, 2004 at 07:25:34AM -0500, Donald Tyler wrote: > > Is there anyway to configure sendmail so that if there is an email address > > in the "From" section, and it does not match the "Return-Path" section, > for > > it to reject the email? > > If I would have configured my system this way, your e-mail would have > been rejected. > > You may want to run a report of all your e-mails and compare the From > address with the Return-Path address and see what you would have > rejected. > > -- > Ed Wilts, RHCE > Mounds View, MN, USA > mailto:ewilts@xxxxxxxxxx > Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program > > > -- > redhat-list mailing list > unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list > > > > > -- > redhat-list mailing list > unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- Ed Wilts, RHCE Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:ewilts@xxxxxxxxxx Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
