Re: Return-Path problem

When I open the header of the e-mail received, the return-path of the
mail is different from the From: part of the mail.   The return-path is
always set to root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx


How can I change this, so that it reflects the same address that is in
the From: part of the e-mail ?

Try setting the following in your muttrc:

    set use_envelope_from=no

This would set the envelope sender address to the address found in the
From header.

Note that some mailers would disallow users to change the envelope
sender address, but that shouln't be an issue for you as you seem to be
running mutt and mail injection as the super user.
