Hello,

  I'm using IMP 2.2.5, Horde 1.2.5 on an intel red hat linux 6.2 system
with zmailer 2.99.53. I have then same problem that inline mail.
Messages has Return-path and Sender Nobody. This is a problem because
when you write an error mail the message goes to nobody and you don't
receive notification. What is the problem?

  Thanks and regards.

Either exim is ignoring the -f flag to set the sender, or you have the
path to 
the sendmail wrapper wrong and IMP is falling back on php's mail()
function, 
which can't set the envelope sender.

Subject: Re: [imp] HowTo modify from (login -> mailalias)

hello,

  I'm using mail-alias and not a phisic user. I'd solved the problem
with a table in the DB that has a correspondence between username and
alias. I have a new php code that link the login.php3 with mailbox.php3,
but with alias.

  Last, I'd modified preferences for the from field and I not permit
modify it anymore.

  If you want the php code, I give you.
