Re: [cobalt-developers] sendmail config / empty recipients field

["your-web.ch \(Neeser Allen\)" <a.neeser@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Ryan

thanks for your response!

I would like, that when our Mailserver a email is receiving, that it not write
automatic our Mailserver-Domain into a empty To: field.
That the Server will only write "Undisclosed-Recipient", or
"Undisclosed-Recipient:@the-mailserver-which-the-mail-come-from.com", or let the
field empty.
But not "Undisclosed-Recipient:@ourserver.com", because our customers will make
us responsible for this Spam, because there see our mailserver in the to: field
and thinking it is a Mailinglist on our Mailserver.

An other Solution is, when our Mailserver emails which have in the Header a
empty to: field, wouldn't receive them and send back as error.


Best regards
Allen

So, what exactly are you asking?  You didn't make this completely clear,
only the problem.

Do you want to deny all mail with no user in the To: field?   (Probably a
bad idea, in the case of actual valid email).  Do you want to deny mail from
a certain email address?  Etc...

Thanks,
Ryan.

| Hello
|
| We have some Problems with customers which are receiving Spam.
| When the email Server into our raq3 is receiving an email which have only
| BCC(Blind Copy) recipients, and not a normal recipients in the field
"to:".
| The Mailserver/sendmail is write for example automatic
| [Undisclosed-Recipient:@raq3.your-web.ch] in the field "to:".
|
| Now, our customers will make us responsible for this Spam, because they
are see
| our Domain in the recipients field "to:".
|
| I had a look into the sendmail config, but I'm unable and not very happy
to make
| a modification without the right Know-How.
|
| I'm really very happy when someone have a solution, because the Problem
isn't
| existing on a raq4. Our raq4 Servers are only writting
"Undisclosed-Recipient"
| in the empty "to:" recipients field.
| In this Fact, I hope someone have a little solution for me. :)
|
|
| Thanks for any response and have a great day!
