[cobalt-users] How to make mailscanner print the correct msg header



Hello List.

After installing mailscanner on RaQ4 , I noticed that sendmail is no longer
printing the "Return-Path" email address and is always printed in message
header that passes thru mailscanner as "Return-Path: <$g>"
which is the same syntax used in the /etc/mail/sendmail.cf  header
definition fields.

I am aware of the fact that "Return-Path" is printed by the final
destination mailer which is in this case my sendmail .. BUT I think what is
happening that sendmail is listening to port 25 and receiving the message
and then handing it over to mailscanner and that is why my sendmail is not
printing the "Return-Path" ..

Running ps -aux, I noticed that there are three process:

1. /usr/sbin/sendmail -q15m which I believe for defining the outQueue mail
run as per config under /etc/sysconfig/mailscanner

2. Sendmail listening to port 25

-and-

3. Mailscanner.

The question, how to make mailscanner prints the "Return-Path" as per
/etc/mail/sendmail.cf configs.


Thanks
