gmail noreply problem
Added by max müller almost 14 years ago
hello,
we are using one google-apps account to send emails for redmine.
this works good. the problem is that we dont want the recipient
to see the real mailaddress and also be able to answer to that address.
so the mail-sender option under mail-administration was working
with the localmailserver but noct with the external googleapps-account.
is there a option that can be set in the email.yml?
any help how to get a noreply address as sender would be great.
thx best m.

thx.
but the "Emission email address" is already set to another mailaddress.
it seems that this option doesnt work for me.

It might be that your mailserver mangles the emission address and sets it to the address of the account you're using to send the mails.

Is there a way to figure that out?

Send a mail from the mail program of your choice to that address and explicitly set the sender address, see if the resulting mail has what you have set in your mail program?

mmhhh..
same behaviour. the mailaddress changes back to the mailaddress of the
authenticated user. the only thing that works, i can change the "reply
to" address. is there a way to change this in the email.yml?
thanks m.

You mean if you can set the reply-to in the email.yml? Not sure, look up the docs for ActionMailer :-)

seems not possible. please, can you tell me in what file the
actionmailer is configured for redmine. so maybe i can play with
the header-settings like :reply_to etc.

Try adding reply_to "your@address.com"
beneath from Setting.mail_from
in source:/trunk/app/models/mailer.rb#L343.

well, this works for the reply to:.
but of course it's not so nice to change things outside the normal
configuration options.
do you have an idea why the "Emission email address" option isn't working?
the account is google-apps and all mail-traffic goes over the postini-service.

I'd wager google overwrites it with the account used. Try with another mail server to make sure.

well, i figured out that, first you have to add a second sender address
in gmail or google apps (e.g. redmine@xxx.com). after that the "Emission email address" setting is working like it should.
thx again for the help
