Return Email Address for Incoming Comments

Hello all,

Right now, when people comment on my Textpattern blog, the comment is emailed to me. The “From” address of the comment is always MY email address. I’d like it to be the email address of the commenter. Is there a way to make this happen?

Thanks in advance!

Iki

Re: Return Email Address for Incoming Comments

The function used for sending the mail is also used in several other places, so it can’t be changed there. Because the email address supplied by the commenter may be fake or from a spam domain, it could cause the email to be caught in a spam filter much sooner.
The email address of the commenter is used in the reply-to address, so replying to the comment(er) shouldn’t be a problem.
