Description

Background

eyeo.com contact form will send a mail according to the sitescripts/formmail/template/eyeo.mail template. This template currently puts the supplied sender's address into From: field of the email. This is problematic as we don't own the sender's domain and might be violating SPF policies.

What to change

Use From: donotreply@adblockplus.org and put the sender's address under Reply-To:.

Arthur notes that this breaks forwarding emails now - the forwarded email no longer has the address of the original sender. The way I see it, there is little we can do about this. Maybe forwarding in Gmail can be adjusted somehow to use Reply-To address? Otherwise people will have to add the original sender explicitly when forwarding mails.

We will look into this issue, of course. But in the context of a new ticket - this one here can remain closed (because it's an unpleasant side-effect of a mandatory change, not a bug with the change-set). Thus, please use the new ticket (#1946) for any further discussion. Thank you!
