Re: [cobalt-users] [Raq4] Full Name (as Sender) in Vacation Message



Hi Robbert,

maybe I try again to explain the "problem" again:

Full Name: Peter Smith
username: smith12345
email-address: psmith@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

If this Mailaccount is using the vacation-reply, the replies are send with "smith12345@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" as the sender and with the username in topic.

This does not look very professional and also gives the username to everybody who send a email to that account.

I'm looking for a way to change that, so that replies are send from the "real account" like "smith@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

I thought that the vacation.pl is the right place to do that, but I have no ideas about the deatils.

Any hints for me?

Joern
