The problem is that SM doesn't have to know my primary address when just parsing the mail header. So it would not be possible to betray my primary email address. But maybe it collide with some other function of sm I doesn't understand? Here an example, a RFC822 header of one test email: Return-Path: <mail-Nk1USUNpOFh5UldmdEZsZFM2WXI5NH@xxxxxxxxxx> Received: from www.ncc-it.net (localhost [127.0.0.1]) (authenticated bits=0) by mail.ncc-it.net (8.14.0/8.14.0) with ESMTP id m9G5fOqZ012818 (version=TLSv1/SSLv3 cipher=DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA bits=256 verify=NO) for <example-real-existing-public-address@xxxxxxxxxx>; Thu, 16 Oct 2008 07:41:24 +0200 Received: from 0.0.0.0 (SquirrelMail authenticated user <deleted by other known privacy issue>) by www.ncc-it.net with HTTP; Thu, 16 Oct 2008 07:41:24 +0200 (CEST) Message-ID: <6362c2674b69a66a9a21784403c6d.squirrel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 16 Oct 2008 07:41:24 +0200 (CEST) Subject: test From: "Squirrel Dennis" <mail-Nk1USUNpOFh5UldmdEZsZFM2WXI5NH@xxxxxxxxxx> To: example-real-existing-public-address@xxxxxxxxxx Reply-To: mail-Nk1USUNpOFh5UldmdEZsZFM2WXI5NH@xxxxxxxxxx User-Agent: SquirrelMail/1.4.15 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain;charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-Confirm-Reading-To: mail-Nk1USUNpOFh5UldmdEZsZFM2WXI5NH@xxxxxxxxxx Disposition-Notification-To: mail-Nk1USUNpOFh5UldmdEZsZFM2WXI5NH@xxxxxxxxxx X-Priority: 3 (Normal) Importance: Normal OpenPGP: id=5F6AC12285FC2C9F There are five (Return-Path, From, Reply-To, X-Confirm-Reading-To, Disposition-Notification-To) fields with correct contents of my alias address, but it sends for read receipt my primary private email address. In this example when I accept sending read receipt, I got the read receipt by my primary private email address. )-; Yes, patches are welcome. I'm perl programmer and able to read/modify php, but it seems it's a mistake by design and not just fixed be one line. And maybe there are some other issue I can't see, so this behavior is "correct"? Have a nice day.
