[cobalt-users] FYI Sendmail Return Receipts

["Dan Kriwitsky" <list1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Maybe a FAQ item for anyone maintaining a RaQ user site.

I spotted in my maillog the server sending a return receipt. (grep
Return receipt /var/log/maillog) Personally, I'd rather an email address
not be confirmed that way. If someone wants to allow receipts in their
user agent, more power to them. Did a little searching and came across:

-SECT-8-47

I edit Sendmail.cf due to the way Cobalt does the m4 thing.

I found in sendmail.cf (RaQ4)

O PrivacyOptions=goaway

and changed it to

O PrivacyOptions=goaway, noreceipts
