Hi, all

  I'm using qmail-ldap with maildrop.  I set the mail forwarding by .mailfilter like this :   cat .mailfilter cc "! chen@gmail.com "   when I sent the mail from sohu.com to <URL:mailto:chen@east.net><URL:mailto:chen@east.net&nbsp;mailto:che ngl@east.net>chen@east.net . the <URL:mailto:chen@east.net>chen@east.net is forwaring the mail to <URL:mailto:chen@gmail.com>chen@gmail.com using .mailfilter file above the log shows:  

@400000004923daa83625b79c info msg 6619371: bytes 5410 from <eastmail08@soh u.com> qp 13683 uid 604 @400000004923daa83625bb84 starting delivery 14: msg 6619371 to local chengl ei@east.net @400000004923daa83625c354 status: local 1/20 remote 0/20 @400000004923daa9041a83a4 new msg 6619573 @400000004923daa9041a8b74 info msg 6619573: bytes 5481 from <chenglei@east. ne@mail01.east.net> qp 13690 uid 620     ---double @ @400000004923daa9041a9344 starting delivery 15: msg 6619573 to remote cheng le@gmail.com @400000004923daa9041a972c status: local 1/20 remote 1/20 @400000004923daa904f7b0bc delivery 14: success: did_0+0+1/ @400000004923daa904f7b88c status: local 0/20 remote 1/20 @400000004923daa904f7bc74 end msg 6619371   mail01.east.net is the hostname of chen@east.net   some mail servers(etc hotmail.com) does't receive the forwarding mail because the "MAIL FROM:" is invalid reverse DNS(double @).

The return address is set by your mail server, not maildrop. Check your mail server's documentation for more information.
