RT3: Sending auto-response as different user

RT3:

How to send template Autoresponse mail that is received
from users other than ‘nobody’ ?

I’m running apache as nobody, it seems therefore to default to nobody
to send mail. Have tried custom templates/scrips of my own but
no luck yet, is that whats needed or is there something else.

Thanks for the help, great product, keep up the good work.

From header of mail you can override in template.
FYI: First lines of template for header overriding

Return-path you could override with -f option of sendmail. If
nobody isn’t trusted user sendmail will add warning in headers.
To enable this option you should use fix to RT from devel list I
reseantly posted about sendmail args.

	Good luck.

RT usually sticks the name of the person who initiated the transaction
into the from field, and uses the address configured. What do you mean
“sends from”?

are you running into the Sender header? if so, it’s been doc’ed.

When I did this (sorry didnt say in mail) the result was this mail header:From: nobody nobody@mycompany.net
Reply-To: my-rt@mycompany.net
To: dmd@speakeasy.org

what I wanted it to be instead was

From: My RT Instance my-rt@mycompany.net
Reply-To: My RT Instance my-rt@mycompany.net
To: dmd@speakeasy.org

Cut and paste the template that you are using so that we can see it.
