I'm noticing that maildrop is setting a null envelope sender when sending messages to external addresses using to and cc.

I've tried setting the sender manually in the SENDMAIL variable, but it appears that maildrop is appending a "-f ''" argument to the SENDMAIL variable.

Is there a way to change this behavior? I want to preserve the original sender of the message, if possible.

FROM is being set, so it's not that :\

I'm using maildrop 2.0.2-11 from debian etch.

Thanks!

There's never a solution that will please everyone. If the original sender's address gets forwarded, here, then everyone forwarding mail for SPF-using senders will start complaining, instead.

If you need to set a return address, instead of "!address", use" | sendmail -f 'whatever' address" to forward mail.
