paramaniac created Redmine issue ID 7031
I am using Formit for a number of enquiry forms, although I think this is a core issue and will affect any email sending snippets. It seems that the Return-Path header is not being set in the emails received from the form being submitted. Some email providers do not allow emails through that do not have a proper Return-Path set and check whether the Return-Path is a valid email address.
The problem is that because PHP Mailer within the MODx core is not setting it, the Return-Path is defaulting to: [INSERT ACCOUNT USERNAME HERE]@your-domain.com which in most cases is not a proper email address. The Return-Path is used for bounces etc and should in fact be using the email address submitted in the form by the user, also used as the From address.
I think there may be a bug in the way PHP Mailer is integrated with MODx and the From email address is not being set as the Return-Path.
