[CWB] CQPweb mail "From" address now wrong, makes mail bounce

[Scott Sadowsky]

An addendum to my previous message: I *can* successfully send e-mails from
the same server with this command:

echo -e "Hi! This is a test!" | mail -s "Test mail" -a "From:
administrator at my.address.com" "destination-address at gmail.com"

Cheers,
Scott

Hi all, I've been successfully sending out confirmation mails from CQPweb

For whatever reason, CQPweb (build 1365) is now *not* using the address set
> in lib/config.inc.php. The relevant lines (I include both possibilities
> that I can see) are:



$cqpweb_email_from_address = "administrator at my.address.com
> <http://liste.sslmit.unibo.it/mailman/listinfo/cwb>";
> $server_admin_email_address = "administrator at my.address.com
> <http://liste.sslmit.unibo.it/mailman/listinfo/cwb>";



Rather, it's cobbling together a sender address from the server user it's
> running under (www-data) and the local hostname of my server (localhost).
> How can this be dealt with? Best!
