Forum Emails

Okay, if you use gmail for emails, the emails sent from the forums seem to no longer work.
This seems to be due to a new thing about multiple email addresses in the "from" that gets rejected now by gmail.

This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

  EMAIL@gmail.com
    host gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com [IP ADDRESS]
    SMTP error from remote mail server after end of data:
    550-5.7.1 [IP ADDRESS] Messages with multiple addresses in From:
    header are
    550-5.7.1 not accepted. For more information, go to
    550-5.7.1  https://support.google.com/mail/?p=RfcMessageNonCompliant and review
    550 5.7.1 RFC 5322 specifications. SESSION ID - gsmtp

Can you post the headers from the email envelope (aka "Raw View")?

This is what I see from EA's mail server, and they "should" be good with GMail - EA is still working, right?  (but who knows - Gmail marches to their own drummer and thinks the rest of the world should follow their lead..?)

 This is what I get from my own forum (v.1.6) .....

Code: [Select]
 From: {my forum ID} <no-reply@namphong.vet>
Reply-To: {my forum} <forum@namphong.vet>
Message-ID: <a7e2b9a1ea6ae9aaab6461c2181bd9e0-p66@namphong.vet>

Unless they're bitching about different domains in "from" and "reply to" (and they shouldn't, at all), and the message ID is from the same "From" domain, this should be acceptable..

If you are using GMail to send, you might have to dig up an old forum email that went through and see what was being sent out "OK" before GMail changed policy..

Well, guess this is a bit low-level for me now, as I finally got SMTP working.

I was actually asking for an envelope from a message sent FROM your forum, not the bounce message back.

I wanted to see what exactly you were sending out that google was objecting to.....

But if it's working now, this thread can go in the "Moot" bin..
